im planning to get one ksi( thinking of getting this or the montero)

Interior is the same for the Gen2 and Gen3 Eve. The only difference is the addition of an AUX port for the Gen3 Eve.

No idea regarding comfort although according to my SA, the rear suspension of the Gen3 is a bit softer and the shocks are "different". Didn't bother to confirm whether the length is different or they're just valved differently although I've heard that the Gen3 rear shocks are a bit longer.

Do note that the 18" wheels and lower-profile tires on the Gen3 Eve will also affect the ride comfort. Our Gen3 Eve's tire pressures are set to 30 front/32 rear and there are no major complaints regarding the ride comfort.

The Montero Sport is definitely more comfortable than the Eve though, although the difference is not that big, IMHO. If you do decide to get the Eve and you find the ride comfort lacking, you can always change out the rear shocks for a pair of Pro Comp MX-6 adjustables (12thou a pair).

JVC HUs are also quite good, ranging from Php20,000 to Php28,000.

The AVT HU used in the Ford ICE package is roughly equivalent to the ~Php15,000 generic HUs in the market today.

A pair of good-quality 7" LCD panels for the headrests won't cost you more than Php10,000.

No built-in GPS for the above HUs though, but that's not actually a bad thing, IMHO. A standalone Garmin GPS unit is a much more attractive option for me.

Cost breakdown:
Pioneer 4250: 25thou
2 x 7" LCD: 10thou
2-din panel for Everest: 5.3thou
Garmin Nuvi 255W w/ Philippine map: 8thou
TOTAL: 48.3thou

Even factoring in the labor costs for the installation, mas sulit pa rin 'coz you're getting much better hardware for your money.

helly thank you very much for your inputs! hindi ko na kunin yung ice package ni ford hehe bili na lang ako sa labas.
mahal pala ng 2-din panel ni everest at ang mura pala ng equivalent price ng ice package ni ford

ano pala gamit mo hu? san ka bumili at nag pakabit? meron ka din sa headrest and maayos ba pag kakakabit?

pa post naman or pm kung san ako pwede mag inquire regarding dun sa mga models na sinabi mo at kung san na din ako pwede mag pakabit

thanks ulit!

Yup. Ganun talaga pag casa, sobrang taas ng markup.

Stock pa rin sa Eve ko, low-priority lang kasi yung ICE sa akin for now (I rarely listen to music when driving). Inuuna ko muna yung mga engine/suspension mods.

Except for the Garmin GPS unit (eBay.ph), the prices I posted are from Maspro (old Banawe near E. Rod, tabi ng Mazford). Benjie yung name ng owner. Okay yung location since tabi lang ng Mazford (best place to buy original Ford parts). Pulido naman mga gawa nila from what I've seen (I believe isa ang Maspro sa recommended shops ng Sta. Fe Club).

Halos ganun din prices sa Nihhao/Nihhon (Banawe cor. Cuenco). Si Auntie Elsie naman yung owner. Suki kami ng barkada ko dun. Okay din trabaho nila.

Other good installers sa Banawe (by reputation): C3 Car Audio, Jetcar, Intense.

confirm ko lang. Sabi kse nung ford global na kausap namin immobilizer lang daw kasama sa package walang anti theft alarm. Yung pag binuksan yung pinto ng kotse mag alarm

Sabi naman ni ford eda greenhills meron daw kasama perimeter alarm yung package

Meron ba talaga anti theft / perimeter alarm kasama yung everest or immobilizer lang?

kse isang susi lang na may keyless entry yung kasama ng package yung dalawa pa susi na kasama walang key less entry. So kung may alarm pano mo ma disable yun kung isang susi lang may keyless entry?

Thanks
