Hey there, def don't like the stock radios in these cars..

Anyone have pics of their double din units installed in their 250/350's?

I have this radio ..

AVH-P4200DVD

and would love to put it in a 250 if I end up buying it.

How much work is this?

 

lots of work needed, there are a couple guys on here with it done.

 

I thought about it and decided no because of all the work needed to retrofit. the A/C controls are with the radio. That's the problem. I bought the Fly Audio Head unit ( retails for about $1,500) and I like it.

 

Im disappoint the 2nd Gen IS dont have any upgrade for headunit.. TSK TSK TSK.. Im not happy with my ride anymore cuz there is nothing I can upgrade the IS250 as radio, forced induction, more of other part I dont remember..

 

search YouTube, there is a video on there. People have installed a double din radio down below where the cd slot is, but I think that's TOO low.

 

lots of wiring, and plus fabricate dash kit.
i gave up on this also.

 

True that, some stereo shop charge me over $2500 incl frabicate kit, wiring, labor and unit.. HEll NAW

YEa it is.. They sitting to close at Cig tray area.. Forget that...

 

You'd either have to buy the OEM navigation and override to play dvd's or get the Fly Audio unit.

 

cot damn!!!!

maybe something like this might help?

 

What the? TOOO GHETTTOOOOO!!! TOo much stuff going on.. Look so ugh Im shock

 

That pic is a FAIL!!!!!!

 

If you really have your heart set on replacing the head unit, then I would go with the Fly Audio unit. Otherwise, it would probably be best if you just upgrade the speakers, and add a sub and amp.

 

I wished there was a fly audio option for my 3gs, consider yourself lucky
