this looks very interesting and easy, could you get a better quality pic of the hvac controls? i like the looks of this but it seems the cutting around the controls dont look so clean to me. how much did this whole setup cost you? not including the pioneer unit.

 

the part for the radio panel is $60 including shipping on JAPANPARTS.com part#180-042-001 and the lower cuddy is $55 at 500whp.com the rest i have laying around the house. so thats about $300 dollar less if your going with the Orbital Prestige. let me say yes its really not that clean coz i was in a rush to finish it. need to be somewhere at that time. but it really doesn't look bad at all because its black you can't hardly notice it. but im still trying to finish it if i have the time. and just like i said you need to be careful on cutting the face. its not that hard really.

 

i think i might give this a try, it looks simple enough and i have been dieing to throw a double din in my car for a while now. also which part did you get for 60 dollars at japan parts?

 

so what do you have to with the wiring ? just pull it down from up there to down here?

 

the double din radio panel not the lower cubby.

 

yes just move it down also the blue and black hard cable it will reach there.

 

ahhh aight, i think i shall give this a try!

 

it would be nice if you had a belt sander and sanded the edges nice and uniform.

 

i know right but i dont have. im still finishing this if i got time.

 

Man you made my week! I'm totally doing this! Thanks!

 

I did this and it's easy!!thanks for the idea!

the only thing i did different is I sandwich the face on the radio relocation, its held on by the 2 screws, I took off my 2din and just hooked it up from there.

 

pics?

 

just ordered the 2 din piece from japan parts it came out a little under 60 bucks. its insane they want to charge 177 bucks for one of the colored ones though. for that i can i just and spray paint the one i ordered a mettalic blue

 

hahah pic, i have to take it apart if i want to show it.I was just saying that you dont have to mount the controler on the cubby. I think the orbital kit does it the same way.

 

well thats the whole reason of doing it this way.... none of us can get our hands on a orbital without paying an arm and a leg for the kit thats why we decided on trying it this way......
