converting 1din dash unit into 2din - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #59821 6 posts Started by xkillerx
hi guys!

i have a standard 1 din headunit opening on the dash with some weird space underneath. . .

i want to pick it all apart and cut it out so that i can flush mount a picked apart lilliput 7" touchscreen.

i still havent made up my mind about where to install the carputer, probably under the passanger's seat? or if i go with mini-itx i can install it inside the dash since there's plenty of free space there.

tips, hints, ideas, advice? a tutorial perhaps?

You say you love flowers but you pick them, You say you love animals but you eat them, I fear the day you'll tell me you love me.
buy the double din dash unit.

and find the radio brackets....
because they may differ from yours
