2003-2004 "Easy" double din kit?

I've been searching for a solution to getting a double din unit in my G35 without having to do all sorts of crazy stuff to keep all HVAC controls (dual climate control). I stumbled upon this (http://www.autotoys.com/x/cust/produ...productid=9777) recently. They are expecting early April release. Any of you guys have any inside info on this?

I don't think that they are going to sell out that quick considering the fact that it's still almost $200.

I would like to see better pics of the unit....because the buttons may not be the same finish as the stock.

I'm sure it would be your own AC Controller you're pulling through a slot there, at least that's what would make sense to me.

SCREW THEM!

They sold me a dash kit for my Chevy Malibu, $190. A month later, nothing.

After several attempts, I finally get in touch with them. They weren't expecting the kit to go into production for another YEAR..... F them....

No, that's wrong. The AC controller is part of the radio, and can not be separated. The new AC controller is the reason that a double-din kit costs over $250..... It's the expensive part....

So this dash has HVAC controls built into it?

I think we do need a better picture.
