Orbital Double Din install pics

I finally have had the time to install the kit and take pictures. THe install was very easy. The only thing that i would take your time on is drilling the new holes for the stock hu. You want to make sure they are perfect so that its sits right. This step took me a few trial and error runs until it was 100% flush. The instructions From Rich were by far some of the easiest to understand instructions ive ever followed. Well enough taking here are the pics. (i added a few of the exterior as well.)
GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK

Is that a camera lens where the trunk key hole is? If so, that's a great idea!

Nice, do you plan on getting the touch screen? Or what was your plan with the Orbital install? I like it, I prolly would put 42 draft designs triple gauge pod on top, with the cd deck in the middle with the heater knobs on the bottom. Nice though. I like it.

well most likely he is.. but them double din touch screens ain't cheap... I like the sub setup in the trunk... clean! I like the key removal and camera in place mod. But, is it hooked up and working? or you gonna get a monitor for it eventually?

should have mentioned that...im still saving the funds for the indash. i want the avic z1 so its not gonna be cheap. hopefully in the next 30 days i will have it installed. until then im thinkin about getting a single din pocket. and no the camera is not functional yet, but i have ran all my video and power lines. this way once i get the screen i will beable to enjoy.

thanks for the compliment on the trunk setup, now i just need to get my new subs. those old fs are due for an exchange.

and about the evomr center console...i think it is a huge diff. im not a fan of the stock one with the ring around it. plus with my short shifter it looks real sleek...i think.

looks wonderful!

you could easily fill that void with an OEM EVO RS din cover. it's about $7 from a dealership.

yes, but believe it or not I can't find them in the U.S. anywhere. they're available in the UK so i'll have to get a price for you.
