Title: Double Din Stereo Install.. **LOOK**
Post by: syecadelic on April 13, 2010, 18:20:26

Well it's finally in  :D
Got the double din stereo installed, JVC AVX -820, bluetooth etc etc etc. lol

Was an easy enough job, just time consuming as screwing up would have meant having to fork out Over £100 GBP to replace the fascia. Wiring harness was not a problem, no adapters needed, except to hook up the steering wheel audio controls.

Superb job and could not be happier with it. :D

Looks great!

Now let's see some shots of it in action :D

Did you say you needed adaptors for the audio controls?



(PS if it's not too cheeky, where did you source it from and how much was it?)

thats pretty sweet! does the headunit have gps as well? Also, does the h/u sit flush? seems to be popping out a little bit or that might just be the picture. You did a great job though! Waiting for some more pics  :razz:

Unfortunately it does sit out about haf an inch, with the face on, may try and set it back a  bit, although it was done without purchasing a fascia kit.

there is gps but I havn't got the add on yet, money is a problem atm =(

the screen is detatchable, which is a super idea, something that really drew me to the unit..
