[3DScott]

[ShinsenTuner]

yeah, its great...I dont carry CD's anymore, i just use my ipod.

3Dscott: i'm not sure if i saw a how to..or was just talking to a bunch of people that did it. wasnt too hard either.

is it inconvieniant? reaching down there to change stations/volume/cd ?

not really, I just use my ipod for the volume and song changing....and plus my cup holders are still 100% functional.

came out pretty good, i'll have to take some pics. Looks a lot better IMO.

Looks very nice! I wanted to do that but now I have an Si cupholder lol.

Looks great man, So you mounted it so it sticks out a little bit right? Mine is kind of flush mounted so the trim piece doesn't fit around my HU.

Really easy mod... mine was a bit tigher of a squeeze though because mine has a 1.25 DIN face (the rest is a single DIN size though. So mine lips out a bit now. At least it's a lot harder to yank out now (not that those theives realized how easy it really was to steal my free CD player before).

Yeah i cant get the trim piece to fit on mine either. The only way i could keep my cup holder functional was to use the factory iso mount holes that the pocket was screwed in to.

I was getting bored with the interior and wanted something new. Also..the cd player is now screwed into a couple brackets back there so...that'll make it hard to steal...where as before..anyone could just take it out without any frustration at all. I put the pocket up where the cd player used to be for the time being, but yes I am planning on getting some gauges in the near future.
