WOW! Very nice!

 

Got mine done this past weekend.
Here are the pros and cons I can think of at the moment:

Pro's: Looks Good, it's custom, easy to do, you can adjust your climate setting & the screen isn't in the way, and the screen is nice and high up, it's easy to view.

Con's: There isn't enough space up there to flush mount your head unit (AC box gets in the way ), & when the screen is up, it blocks the AC vents.

Here's a pic:

 

Time to get that worn shift **** replaced! (I have the same problem..this is my third ****)

 

well, rmm gs4 got it mounted flush and no problem. ask rmmgs4 for the secret. his next project is trying to fit a 8" on there, flush

 

I knew I should have asked him...but if you look at it, seems like you'd have to modify the AC air box in there...maybe cut it and reform it, but it's plastic so fiberglass will just melt it. I'll look into it.

Oh, and yes! I do need a new shift ****...where can I get one...how much?

 

when youmoved your ac controls to the bottom, did you have to cut a whole new plastic bezel for the cd player, i have a fiberglass bezel made for my dvd/nav pioneer unit, it prob would not fit well, but curious if i could just flip flop them, thanks bryan

 

No you'd have to cut a new piece since the top is bigger than the bottom. Since I had the stock unit before I just put this one in I had to make a plate anyway. Besides that, all you have to do it cut the climate control face a little bit on each side.

 

well actually when rmmgs4 did the AC mod, he only trimmed the two sides of the control, nothing else as far as i know

 

I think fireballs is talking about modifying his already aftermarket stereo and wants to know if the current custom bezel will fit if mounted higher up..since it's bigger up there, it wouldn't work.

 

sorry about that @_@

 

any tips to give out ? im getting a kenwood 6in indash dvd player for $650usd i want to do the same mod but looking at silverlexo's and rmmgs4's looks like its a hard decision to shave off enough on the sides and tips guys ?

 

damn where did rmmgs4 get that bezel around the screen it looks like it a fits perfect.

 

Thanks Josh

SilverLexo is probably the third person I know of, who has performed the climate control mod.

Good Job by the way !
