I bought my head-unit from these guys. The customer service experience wasn't great, crutchfield.com will give you all of that but at a higher price.

The 2007 model is the 9885 the old 2006 is 9857. DO NOT BUY from ANY Ebay seller. They all sell used/refurbished/stolen/open box/scratched off serial numbers. I say this from experience ! When buying a head unit buy from RELIABLE sources. You can buy components ans such from Ebay save money ther but the Head Unit keep to the name brand stores.
The difference between the 9857 is that in HD radio mode it only carried HD1 which is only one HD frequency(hence only 1 station/per frequency) , but the 99885 is HD2 which can tune to multi stations per frequency.
And I'm currently sitting on a alpine 9857 with a Claim thru paypal...seller sold it to me NEW but it is missing parts and is scratched and had serial number grounded off the headunit...
