st3ph3n Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Craig, what year is your car? I had absolutely no trouble fitting a Pioneer DEH-P8600MP to a MY05. Mounted in the top of the double DIN slot and a pocket underneath it.
craig mac Posted October 15, 2005 Author Posted October 15, 2005 Stephen Its an 05 Its fitted in the bottom slot with the pocket above, fitted it this way round as i said earlier had to cut and file the opening to get it to fit and with it at the bottom you dont and cant see the minor adjustment LOL The face of the kd is bigger than normal head units, this is where the problem has come from but its in and looks well cool Craig
terminator Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 Do the dealerships not sell the centre console to fit a standard din sized unit at £70 plus vat?
craig mac Posted October 15, 2005 Author Posted October 15, 2005 ? Do they? I take it you have to transfer all the air fan and heat controls over to this? Please do tell me more as i scratched the front on this panel tonight Craig
p1ggm Posted October 15, 2005 Posted October 15, 2005 cheapest way to fill the hole left is to get a pocket out a fiesta or escort..fits perfect and can get it from any scrappie
