Who posts "I bought product A, and just wanted to say it works".... Not too many people.

Who does post? People with problems. They are cheaper, therefore more people buy them. Same exact thing as the M2-ATX. Look for posts about them and you see a bunch of failures are blowing ups. Most are user error overloading it. What you dont see is the 10 times the amount of people where it is working.

And lilliputs "back in the day" used refurbished LCD panels usually from the old Jurassic Park arcade games, and the dino got burned into the screen! But quality has definately imporved from what I am told as it was before my time, and cost went down at the same time.

So to answer you question, yes the results are very skewed, and yes they have improved since 2004 I suppose.

And that subaru kit, is not a true double din. It is larger than some cars, hence why they dont sell it as a double din enclosure in general, ust for subarus which use the very large double din area. It works in some other cars, but usually the screen sticks out or something.
