can you guys post pics of your in dash dvds in your firebirds n maros. im seriously thinking about spending money on one. also any brand will fit with a little modification? right or no?

or should i get the Escort - Passport 9500i Radar/Laser Detector... or.. garmin nuvi GPS (another reason i want to go with in dash dvd player)

idk i have a fat gift card for best buy so what do you guys think i should get. btw POST THOSE IN DASHes!

I like Garmin Nuvi. The Garmin Nuvi 265WT is a good blend of price and features. I have a Garmin 680 which is an older model but basically the same thing as the 265WT.

Kenwood's double-din headunits use Garmin. Take a look at the Kenwood DNX5120, DNX6140, DNX7120, DNX8120:

Yea they all pretty much fit, only problem is you have to modify the radio bezel to fit. Also they might not come with the right bracket because techically a double din isnt supposed to fit in our car. But if youd like one i have a Pioneer AVIC-D1 for sale.

Any reason you guys went with the in-dash compared to the flip out ones ?

I want one for my LT1...is that possible without having a flip out?

It looks 10x better, and there is less stuff to break. I also had a flip out one that would flipout and it covered the a/c controls(not an fbody) but it was a pita.

I'm sure it's possible, but I doubt it's worth the trouble.

In dash looks 100x's better than a flip out when done right. A DIN LCD screen adds a nice touch to the interior of almost any car if you ask me.

It is possible, the question is, do you want to take the time/effort/money to do it?

I wanna tackle this when I find a double-din

InfiniteReality's carputer is by far the cleanest install.





Its not a radio but it does play dvd and has gps.

Do you have to replace the speakers with one of these? Or will it sound good with the stock speakers?

Flaring Afro

^^^ ... um it will sound better than stock. I wouldnt quite label anything with stock speakers "good". Thats for the radio, if you mean the carputer either you need a new amp with RCA Ins or you will have to keep the stock radio with an aux in adapter hidden in back of dash.

Do those kenwoods match well to the color of the ta dash lighting? Can you set them to match ?

Also do any kenwood double din have sat built in option as well? For sure want cd, mp3 ,sat would be nice possibly too. Hate extra dodads in my car.

Also can I make some of those kenwoods work with my steering wheel controls?

Flaring Afro

theres a faq for changing dash bulbs to leds so you can make it match. also there prolly are kenwood specific adapters, if not the pac swix should make the controls work
