Double din radio nacelle
« on: 03 September 2007, 14:56:48 »

I`ve just fitted a double din DVD player and I`ve left an ugly space around the edge.
Is there a fitting I can get to dress it up a bit.
Hope you can Help,
Wineprovider

I would insert an image but I can`t work out how ..................sorry

Only thing I could think of would be to buy a double to single DIN convertor plate from Halfrauds etc (Autoleads make them) and try and modify it.

this one will work so long as you as prepared to modify it a bit.

the reason being the centre console on the Omega is tapered, the one on offer here has straight sides.

a craft knife and some time could see this sorted though...

if you do some pics would be good  :y

It`s not a very good picture but it will give you the idea.


Perhaps someone could tell me where to get the codes for the pics so I can put a picture of my car here.
