Looks nice, i like the end result. What do you have it for, back up cam? Nav? Video?

:tup: Great job

Jeffblue 11-04-2010 10:32 PM

wow that actually looks really nice :tup: one of the reasons i don't like the aftermarket HU's is because it seemed like they could only be placed down low, but that location looks great. you have a camera on that?

diablokev87 11-04-2010 11:00 PM

Nice, did you do that your self?

radek7633 11-04-2010 11:43 PM

Thanks guys!

so far its just a Navi, but has an extension port for AV in, so backup cam is next.

I did it with some help. The frame is plexiglass and it is wrapped in black leather (matches the dash exactly which was a nice surprise)

And I used the DIY for installing an aftermarket radio on this forum to take appart the dash to get to the cubby. =)


** gotta admit I couldnt have done it without my pops**

Looks pretty good. Buy a mac mini and stuff it in the glove box.

Cool, what did you use to mount the plexiglass to the car, and the screen to the plexiglass?

looks nice, think it would look a whole lot better if you could some how use the leather from the door that was there with the stitching down the middle

Very Nice, Awesome work,:tiphat: are you considering making anymore of these plexiglass cubby hole frames, and how much did all the work cost you supplies and time.

radek7633 12-01-2010 08:43 AM

Hi...

Supplies were about 5 dollars.
The plexi glass was from a hardware store, and the leather was from an old sofa pillow, just happened that the leather matched the dash exactly.

Time was a few hours all together. I probably wouldnt do any more of them because I would have to take out the one I have now to make sure subsequent frames have the same fitting.

Highly recommend people to try this DIY because you cant really screw anything up on the car.
