Thanks for the compliment, did it myself.............just lots of sanding, filling, bondo, etc. Hardest thing for me was trying to get the texture to closely match the factory parts, I tend to be a bit **** on those kinds of things and had redone several times! lol

Thanks. I've got the iPod in the glove box. I don't take it out of the car. The display fits perfectly, and both display and controller hide away beneath the covers. No one knows it's there...
