SC300 Car PC Stock stereo question
Vehicle:
93 Lexus SC300
Ok maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
So Im trying to do a carpc install, but unlike most others I'm trying to accomplish this while still keeping the stock stereo. Why am I doing this with the stock stereo? B/c I've got a wedding coming up and all my extra funds are going to pay for that. Since I have a surplus of laptops/pc's I figured it'd be cool to start a project that wouldn't be too hard on the wallet and that I could build with stuff that I already own.
I've already done the Aux mod on the factory unit to override my non working 12 disc CD Changer and it works great....
Now to where my question: Is there some way to get a Double din touch monitor to place over the stock stereo face plate? Maybe remove the stock face plate and replace it with something similar to this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/200712548501...84.m1438.l2649
I know this unit is probably a no-name but if someone knows of anything else that might work better I'm all ears. I'd like to keep the stock stereo for simplicity/$ factors as well as being able to still utilize the Sc's volume ****.
I'd like for this to look as OEM as possible
Thanks in advance!

CarPC Install - Aux Input
You mentioned you are adding a carpc setup and did the aux input mod. Did you use this method - https://www.clublexus.com/forums/lex...n-your-sc.html or a different mod?
I will extend the wires on the factory radio to move to different location to add 7" touchscreen in its place. I'm member of mp3car and they have the custom bezels with screen.
Thanks for your help.....Gee
