Default Need pics!! AVIC-Z1 and AVN 6600/7000 installed on 2nd gen GS

POST SOME PICS of your AVIC Z1 or AVN6600 or 7000 unit in your 2nd gen GS!!!
I decided to upgrade my HD to NAV, I have my system already installed as per my SIG using stock HD. I was thinking of Pioneer AVIC Z1 just because it looks more stock in all black then my always favorite Eclipse double din units. I was thinking either AVN6600, AVN7000 or Pioneer AVIC Z1. I saw pics here on forum of a perfect color match double din kit on someone elses car, that flushes with climate control color unit perfectly color wise. Where do I get one? Does anyone have pics of their AVIC Z1 or AVN6600 installed on GS 2nd gen?? Here is a pic of the Eclipse unit with perfectly matched kit.. Looks nice but Eclipse has light color buttons and has silver plates on top and buttom of the unit, I think Z1 would look great.. I imagine AVN6600 or 7000 would look the same as unit on this pic?!

z1 will not be bypassable in newly shipped out z1'a from Pioneer due to all the law suits they got with people bypassing the units, that is what Authorized dealer/shop told me today.. that is what I posted in the above thread mentioned!!!! Is that true, some one shine some light on it..

that kit looks like it matches colorwise with climate control, does it? if it does, where can I get one? Looks good, Z1 one has bigger screen and buttons are on the bottom and looks more stock then any other unit I saw so far, I looked at one today at the shop who sells them

u can get the kit at: l-tuned parts.com , u can go to the pioneer website and look at dealers in your area for the z1 unit.

Well apparently dealers charge full MSRP of $2250, can get this unit for $1450 online and have someone that knows how to install these, install it for me for couple of hundred dollars and bypass it.. As far as the kit for it, I did see it Carson's website, but does any one knows if it matches perfectly colorwise with the above climate control? I think Hammed, member on here got it from somebody on CL here, I should ask him to see how that matched, I saw few pics on here where people installed double din units in GS and some did not match at all, they were simply black and not like stock color.. So I did not like that..

Default Eclipse AVN 6600!

I was able to get one at a good price, but it will be awhile before I install it due to trying to get all my audio done at once!
