double din kits for a vs

[hansley]

as in stereo? im sure any good auto store can sell you a double din, u'll just have to self modify the stereo surround coz i dont believe there is a bolt in solution for them.

trust me mate dont go there... its not that easy as the heater box (i think thats wat it is) is in the way and u cant get the headunit all the way it just hangs out the front.. i ended up selling my double din dvd player to a mate and bought a single din one.

I was wondering about that, how would the double din work? There's hardly enough room for a single din.

Yeah you can get a double din to work it just takes a lot of effort. I cant remember who but someone on this forum had it in his vs. But basically instead of cutting out the bottom section of the surround you have to cut up as well so that the headunit will sit just above the heater box.

If this is anything to go by - Don't do it!
(No offense to the dude who did it)

hi,i was thinking bout putting a double din head unit in my vs too..just wondering tho why can't i cut the piece out where it has the abs/irs badge and those useless blank button spaces?go down not up into the dash like pics show..

[OzJD]

Ozbay - Have a good look behind the plastic!!! There's **** all room.
In theory it sounds good, but unless you're happy to remove that.... you end up with above

[RoboticCherry-Coke]

yeah the as OzJD said you have to go up... the heater box is in the way if u go down the headunit will stick like 5cm out of the dash.. there is no room at all, the idea of going up is so that the headunit will sit on top of the box.

if you want a double DIN player, buy a VT or beyond...
