£300 for the fitting over 3 days. I have to admit I took my chances with this one, and I'm going go back to them to try and rectify the gaps along the sides. I'll keep you guys informed with the results.

mate you know, im no cowboy.........erm cowboy

now to put this into prospective, at one time i offered to make stelth installs for the coupes for £250, and theyv charged you £300 to "make fit" a double din into a coupe, now i dont know them but for that what theyve done i would of said "er... thats it! you didnt even fiberglass it and sprayed it black to make it look oem.

your problem now is that theyv got the money and as far as they see it the jobs been agreed and done, i hope you can get it properly finished off, best thing to do is see how well these bits of cut plastic are if you know what i mean, if its not staying together under normal use then you know what im saying

Des can you not print a pic of the pic i but up to take with you,then theres no way they can say that it would not fit any other way,300 is about 295 to much for what they did

not a bad fit imo...

im looking to get my jvc fitted once i get some cash so will keep and eye on your progress and post up mine as and when.

Its great to see this though

Who did this one? Looks good, and I would be interested to know where it was done.

i found that one on the internet and uploaded it to the club webspace, i could never track down who did it - but thats what im aiming for

I'll be sure to take the pic "Cowboy" this weekend. I've got a follow up with the guy and we'll see how this goes.

The construction and fitting's ok, sturdy enough. I even asked the guys at the local Fiat dealership to look at it; they were impressed I kid u not, with the install. The aesthetics; that's my problem, but I do want to go the whole 9 yards.

Word of warning the centre console and the middle console all had to come out.

Once I've had a chance to go back this weekend,I'll hand out the details of this ICE outfit and see if they measure up on the apres service.

I think I've taken a chance, but that's at my expense. Hopefully we now have an example, fellow y'all can follow suit - Bon chance!!

g,luck mate i no they can do better,just takes a bit of time.

This thread has just made me want to go double din style now love it

Des £300 seems abit much tbh £150 would be about the right price...but if they can sort the detailing out in the 300 then its worth it! good luck with this mate looks good

Double DIN is easy, providing you have enough room

the coop centre console just ain't made for it, not easily !

I've almost cobbled the centre console to swap the heater controls to the base ( I've left the ashtray bollocks alone, quite why cars have them is beyond me )

But, the gamble is if there is enough room when the heater controls are removed, I may end up giving up, as it looks like a lot of hacking, maybe if I had access to a scrap coop, it'd be a lot easier to practice !

good luck

i think its a good idea i would love a double din in my car but we could do with someone making these i think quite a few would sell

Someone needs to do a How to guide on this...
