Re: Double Din

Check out this Double Din Answers thread and the several others that discuss this. There's a picture in that thead of the controller board that's in your car now. As you can see, the radio controls and the A/C controls are on one circuit board. To remove the stock radio, you need the A/C-only circuit board. Plus, the A/C-only board available from Japan does not have the dual-climate button, though the circuit exists on the board.. you have to steal the button from your current board and solder it to the new one. I think we have a member that will be doing this setup to a friend's car soon and documenting the whole thing with pictures. Stay tuned.

Re: Double Din

Re: Double Din

Sorry to hear about the elbow. Pics of the new dash and setup would be great. I'm still debating whether or not I want to keep the OEM look but I want my MP3 headunit back!
