Nice! I think this is the first time I've seen a non-navigation 2IS dash.

took me about 4 hours.. if u can do it urself its really not worth what ppl charge u.. if u have any questions about anything to do this mod feel free to ask.. i tried to ask some of the other members on here who offered "help" and they were total dicks.. telling me they cant disclose any of their ****ty secret info so i found out myself and im willing to help anyone who really wants to undertake this themselves

Props to you for undertaking this project and successfully completing it. Sometimes, I just wonder why some CL members don't lend a helping hand.

Very impressive, I love the blue rings around the *****.

And interesting OEM wheels.

If you could explain a short version of how you did it, what to watch out for and maybe give some tips that'd be awesome.

I don't like the green and want to replace mine, I'm also good with a soldering gun. The part that scares me is getting all the parts in and out without breaking them..

I'd love to try this!
