Went fairly well, most time consuming was the cutting of the radio bezel.
Heres some pic's, I think it looks good.
This maybe good for newbees also.
Below is the speaker wire connection and CD changer connector.

Stop button for stock radio, had to be removed

Some connector box, had to be relocated and zipped tied

Zipped away


Button removed

Really good. The bezel needs some more work to make it look flush and uniform color.
How's the visibility while driving in daytime with the top down?

Haven't really tested in day light conditions yet. Im not sure how much more I can do with the bezel, the black inserts I could paint but.....

look good, how do you like using it? i had a 9000bt? in my truck and didnt care for it..

TakeaShift

nice!

can I ask, what made you go with a double din mounted semi-fixed screen, .. vs. a fold/flip-out single DIN ?

99SSragtop

I like it, no problems, what did you not like about your 9000bt ?

First off the price was real good, 299.00 cdn, secondly always wanted a large screen for movies, the singles for movies don't cut it for me.
Now time for some Alpine components up front and god knows for the rears, convertible ya know.

looks really good, wasnt there a place that already sells the bezel modified for a double din? im looking at a clarion unit as well.

Not sure on the bezel, for this HU unit not much cutting was needed.
