i really want to have 3 -60 mm gauges where the radio is now, and have a kenwood flip out nav unit from another vehicle i wanna install in the lower cubby. has anyone done this successfully? and is the screen still visible?

it seems possible if the headunit was located really far forward.

any input?

 

anyone?

 

I have a feeling the lower cubby doesn't extend out enough to allow the screen to flip straight up.

 

Mine doesnt flip straight up, its a bit slanted outwards. You can use some custom brackets to mount the HU outwards more for more clearance.

 

yea thats what im thinking... use some brackets to slide it forward a bit, and fiberglass a custom bezel.

 

I've done it. Looks great IMO. I'll post pictures when I get the chance. Yes, the screen is fully visible. You just have to let the HU stick out slightly.

 

I found this pic of en1gma19's car. He posted it here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...6&postcount=12

 

exactly what i was looking for. THANKS!

now on to stripping out the nav/hu out of this other car. (which is a pita... installer mounted the "brain" under the seat, and i gotta pull the whole dash to get the gps reciever out )

back to work

 

Here are a few quick shots of mine.

 

fixed the images.
