Best looking double din.

Can someone help me find the best looking double din kit for my 03 sedan? I have looked in tech area and all Im able to fine are kits with realy lame looking A/C buttons. I would like to find a kit that looks as factory as possble.

You'll need the JDM A/C control. You can get them from Tony@RiversideInfiniti.

PM him and he'll hook you up.

Another vendor on here who sells 'em is Grubbs. But, I can't find their thread.
Never-the-less, you can still order from their site.

A) Cheap finish B) Cheap material C) Cheap fitment D) Cheap buttons = Cheap

However, I mean it works, but it there is a better choice for you, then why not get that?

W O R D!

Mines starting to die.. sometimes it resets itself, or the buttons dont work. The backlights dont come on sometimes without a smack.

Its pure fail.

I have a JDM kit now im gonna swap in, and wrap it in carbon while im at it.

..Metra = FAIL

The JDM kit may be an extra $100 or so, but that's pennies per day for having a perfect looking, perfect feeling double din and button setup.
