Turned out very nice. These things have really come a long way since I had one installed in my SC300 about 3 years ago. I may have to do one of these again after I do my turbo.

Wish I seen this thread before the meet today.

I like your DIY. It does look like it came from the Manufacture.

For the wood grain overlay. I choose pic #3. Thats if you havent done it yet. If you can get the vol, hazard and the other section that is grey, to black. It would look a lot better.

mad props for the high tech mod. !!!!

Was thinking about doing something similar in my ES300 but decided I'll be getting rid of it within a year or 2. Maybe something to think about for my next ride.

Thanks for sharing the project from beginning to end.

Looks fire man! GJ on the install!

checkout the new digitalfx 4.0....It now comes with a whole new music sorting/browsing system. I just upgraded last night, it's nice! Best feature's gotta be the virtual 10 disk changer...

For those that want a CarPC with minimal work and minimal power strain, an iPhone can serve as a great Carputer too.
