did by chance get the radio from crutchfield and if so did they give any instructions on how to fabricate the trim around the radio. I think it looks great the only think i might suggest is that you paint the vents,console ,door handles, etc... either the exterior of the car or maybe black then everything would look the same.

That looks REALLY GREAT. I was thinking about getting the exact same model but I cheaped out and got the Garmin 360 instead. Glad I did too because once you get used to them you want one in all your vehicles.

clb0099: Crutchfield didn't send instructions on making a faceplate. I just did my best. I need to do a little more, like close the gap at the top, but I'm pretty stoked I got the sucker in and it works. Don't know about the paint thing. I had the rear console and the first two bottom sections painted the exterior color of the car. It looks odd in those pic because you can't see the rear console. In person it looks pretty sweet.

Thanks FIG.

der GEIST: I want one in my other cars, too. I'll probably get my wife-to-be a portable nav unit like the one you got so we can use it in our other cars. She admitted the nav unit was way cool and wants one too.
