RE: double din in console?
the stock deck looks like a bag of smashed assholes in my opinion.
but.. meh.. whatever blows your hair back... got my adapter kit the audio shop in town my buddy owns. I can get more if you want one. |
RE: double din in console?
not to mention stock sounds like crap.

RE: double din in console?
ORIGINAL: Drexl its an adapter kit for the car.. the original radio can still go right back in there. I could do that, but if I'm not mistaken there's no input on the back of the factory radio. At that, I'm quite fond of the styling of the newer ones, old one's look like crap. Like I know I could get a CD player out of a mystique or contour that's a single din and weld the bracket from the fox factory radio to the bottom of it, but if I can, I would rather go with the newer one. |
RE: double din in console?
those are the same 4 holes that the stock radio bolts into.

RE: double din in console?
The adapters run inline with the antenna input. They're a hard wired FM modulator. I've never used one, but I imagine they sound as "ok" as the stock stereo sounds anyhow.
I agree that stock is poo, but you said you wanted the factory look. If you do some research, you might be able to find a factory single din MP3 player unit that you like. Or.. Find an aftermarket unit that you like and build a kit for it that suits your needs. My car came with an aftermarket unit already in it, so I have no clue how the stock mounts. But, I've built my own kits for cars in the past and they turned out fine. |

That's alright Drexl, I've already got mine in. As many problems as I had a couple days afterI got my stereo installed, I'm not going to mess with it. I know the problems are unrelated, but I'm still not going to mess with it.

The factory radio doesn't bolt to the console, it's a ford, it has two clips on either side that hold it in and a guide along the top to hold the back of it up. Those holes were drilled well. then the holes are covered.. so either way who cares |
RE: double din in console?
i've done the radio swap its much cleanrt look the top is the radio then 3 gauges then the heater controls no pics of it yet cost $85
