Yeah I saw that from your album. Won't be a hard task at all considering my trade.

Thanks again!

 

OK, got the Metra 95-5812 dash kit in the mail. Re-did the mount. I trimmed 1/16ths of an inch off the top edge of the dash kit faceplate with an exact-o knife for a sharp edge. Used a raised edge on the back side of the faceplate as a guide for a straight cut. Now the HU face has room to operate, no touching of the dash kit faceplate. It only took me one shot to get the kit aligned correctly in the dash. I think it's a byproduct of the quality Metra dash kit.

Man this Metra dash kit is a high quality kit compared to the el cheap-o Scosche kit! Though it came free with my HU, I'm never trying one of those again!!!

Pics.



I have it angled down a bit to reduce on possible glare.






It's a super tight fit on tilt 4, but I never tilt it anyway. I'd like it if it tilted the other way.

 

looks much better the second time around

 

ya that looks nicer.. i bought my trim kit from crutch field and it all came out nice... i have the JVC KW-AVX800... i bought it a couple years ago and really like it.. when i was shopping for them i wanted one with 5 volt pre outs .. and it was about the only one i could find at that time.. i love it... here is a pic of how my trim came out.. mine sits flush with the dash... oh.. wait tell you put some nice speakers in the doors ! what a differance that makes... now i have 2 amps.. one for the doors and one for my sub...movies are better then the theater.....

 

Looks great!

 

MT, that looks nice too!!!

 

Setup looks really good in your truck

 

Thanks... hey i also bought the JVC 12 dis changer and it fit nice in the center console.. sure is nice not having to switch cd's all the time.. comes right up on the head unit.. maybe i will snap a pic and show you .....

 

All my cd stuff is on the ipod. The built in interface for this unit works flawlessly.

 

Looks better Will, although I still like the stock units better for some reason. I think it has to do with not having the buttons like the stock units do. I like to have to press dials and such

 

I hate dials and buttons. I'm very happy with it and am enjoying learning how to use it.

 

its alot different than the 8 tracks ur used to huh??

 

Glad to hear man... I bet it sounds better tho

 

Cassettes, not 8 tracks. I'm 39, not 65.

 

What did you do about your parking brake cable for watching dvd's
