Just ordered a double din Kenwood 7100 w/ Garmin nav for the vert. I mentioned it to the wife the other day that I would like to do it and she said "that would be nice"..That's enough for me.:

Got to take advantage of the situation. If wifey says "that would be nice", you're good to go....

You don't waste any time do you? That is a great HU. So do you already have a custom double din console?

Not yet. TA8088 has one that he's started but is not going to use. I'm going to take a look at that one first.

Did you remember to tell your wife that you "would like" to do that too. BTW, are you leaving the console black?

I should have known. It's gonna look sweet. I am actually thinking of getting the Pioneer AVIC Z2 for my car, but am working on the suspension right now. I ordered some pfadt sways from Chip and will be doing the Koni FSD shocks as well. I'm gonna try your technique with the wife and see how that goes.
