I was told by a friend of mine that there is an aftermarket bezel that can allow the mounting of a din-sized radio in place of the factory radio? Dunno if this is nonsense of not, but maybe someone out there knows and I'm just clueless?

 

It's complicated. Read this thread:

Double Din-ANSWER!!!

Yes, it is kinda complicated. That thread should cover most of it. Here's the short overview:

1) The "double-din" console is available from Japan, with a double-din size hole instead of the Bose. Pay attention to part numbers for color and for nav/no-nav.

2) However, the stock radio and A/C controls are integrated on a single circuit board. You need to also order the A/C controls from Japan.

3) If you have dual-climate now, you'll have to do a little soldering work to keep it, the A/C board from japan has the functionality, but not the physical button for it.

That thread goes into more detail.

 

Thanks guys...new to this site and the reply's were more than helpful!

 

I saw this setup on Ebay for $475.... is this right? Or can I get it cheaper by ordering it from the G35driver Japan connection, haha! I think I read something about $363 shipped? Any info would be beneficial, thanks!

 

Hey,

see my thread for the details on the v35 dash pieces from J's Garage in Japan. You could get this "kit" w/o the blank bracket and the dash pocket and save another $15. PM me if you have any questions.
