So I recently installed my Eclipse 726e and I have to say that the overall performance of the headunit is far more superior than the Pioneer Avic F series. I took the car to a buddy of mine Ryan at Creative Audio. I purchased the dash trim from crutchfield for $31 and I was dumbfounded by the fitment of this aftermarket piece. I anticipated the dash kit to be a little off, but it was alot worst when it was installed. Here is a Video and some images after the install. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rby-EfQvlCM

 

Dude you have an Evo now, I used to see you post over on Audizine when I had an A4, your ride was my favorite, so sick!

Is that the scorche kit or the metra?

 

wow that looks good!

 

Haha thanks man I just bought the Evo about a month ago. I wanted to build a fast car for alot cheaper than that pig of car.

This is the kit I bought http://www.crutchfield.com/p_1209970...t.html?tp=3121

I strongly suggest looking for something else because the gap on the top may bug you like it bothers me. I may end up getting the OEM Rockford kit and just installing that instead.

 

can't see the pictures

 

Damn server is down. I wil put the images up on a different spot and update my original post.

 

Yeah Man, Im pretty sure that is the Metra kit, which everyone seems to think is the worst fitting one of them all. I just got the Scosche kit, but havent installed it yet cause I'm waiting for my new deck to come. The Scosche is a bit more square around the top, but fits a ton better. Check out the threads in the same area, few people have it installed like this guy:

Keep us up to date on that Evo, I'm sure it will be even sicker then your A4's.

I have the Eclipse AVN 7000 (single din/7inch) in a metra kit and the fitment is terrible, even after I screwed with it. Looking for a different solution when it becomes available.

The guy who bondo'd the stock dash kit to the Metra one made it look good though.
