Re: Overhead console/double din stereo install

Here's a couple of pics showing the one I modified compared to an unmolested one.

I also had to modify the cover/sliding door at the front of the console. To be able to still use the front compartment, I trimmed the door along the sides and across the front edge of it then glued on some plastic R/C airplane hinges (seen in white) and also installed a push type magnetic latch to keep it closed.

Future plans for the front compartment include a mount for my IPOD Classic, A USB port for the stereo, and a power outlet for my cell phone charger.
