So i was wondering what everyone would think and say about putting a double din head unit in the dash of a 66 coupe. i was thinking either an eclipse or jensen or pioneer. either way it would still be a double din and that is a bit of cutting on that panel. i think it would look nice and kinda modern but i just want some other opinions. thanks any input would be nice.

 

Cutting =[:'(]

Just hide it in the glove box.

 

Don't cut the dash

 

i was planning on doing the touch screen without all the ***** and crap its just i work on cars i do the audio stuff andi kinda like the modern classic mix but i just need to know how it would look i dunno still alot of think to be done

 

[sm=nono.gif][sm=nothatway.gif]You will not be able to go back after cutting. Don't they make a touch screen in a regular din format, The kind that comes out and then up?

 

build a console on the floor to house the new unit , or use the old style console unit with the barn door it will hold a double din and conseal it

 

where can you order those barn door things i canno find them so i can buy one and butcher it for my new stereo and keep my other for when i decide to go original

 

are you talking about the full length console thats goes from the front to the back? well how much would that be and i just want something people dont have so i may just have to build one.

 

yea, i was wondering the same, i dont think mine needs cutting since my radio is considerably lower then previous years, but if i do, i want to buy an aftermarket area and cut that, so i can go back to original if i have to

 

I'm trying to put a head unit in my console area and its not large enough. the head unit is too big by about an inch. I don't know bout a touch screen or anything like that. we're just putting it in the glove box
