Anyone have pics of a double-din setup in their SC?

I'm thinking about picking up a cheap unit off eBay. They have no-brand asian ones for $250.

 

dont know the brand because the audio shop included it with the installation

 

... Pioneer..? if you're talking about the bezel then most likely it's by Metra

check the classifieds if you don't mind buying used.

 

I know it's Pioneer(AVH-3200BT)... I thought he was talking about the bezel for some reason. BTW mine was $490 installed with the capability to watch movies while in "D"rive (no, i dont watch movies while i drive, my passengers do)

 

heres mine, metra kit, pioneer avic z1, dnt mind the filth and coffee mug haha
picked up the screen on craigslist, dash kit was about 11-30 bucks in that range (been a while i cnt remember)
ran the wiring myself

 

LOL I had the same reaction I was like "wtf that's a pioneer?...." haha. That's a great price installed btw, and a great unit. I just picked up the F90bt for the supra and damn do I love it!

The Metra kit is what you want as well for fitment - there's a thread on here though about how to reinforce it as it's made of plastic and wont be as durable as the factory cage/mount. Search for that and you'll be good to go.

 

 

I made a car pc. This is the touch screen then i have the pc under the passenger seat and the amp controlling the speakers under mine.





Ignore the fact it says bmw haha that was a display map on the ECU before.

I run Winamp of all things with a nice skin (car one) for the sound system then VLC for video's but that doesn't go on often.

 

I know we need the trim ring to make the double din fit the opening but why a new cage? Every other double din Toyota product lets you re-use the factory brackets. Just eyeballing the SC brackets, they look like they have the standard screw locations. What's so different?

It may be obvious if I tried to mount a new radio but so far I only have the stocker removed.

 

i didnt need a cage when i did mine, all i used was the metra kit, it does have the right holes for mounting
many ppl will mod the metra kit with the stock brackets for extra support, i didn do it and my dash is holding up fine but each to his own on taking the risk, the metra is plastic and pretty flimsy

 

i have the same poineer as FiSta and used the metra kit, bought everything off sonicelectronix for under $400 and istall is very simple since metra gives u a step by step booklet on how to do everything with the trim kit

 

You guys and your Pioneers pfffttshh It's all about the Alpine IVA-W505 I'm just kidding, but I still hate Pioneer
Please excuse the unfinished work.

You're not using frontend software?

 

is it a mac computer ur running? sweet setup

 

Looks more like windows XP to me, doesn't mean it can't be a mac though.

I thought about carputer at one point, but I didn't look too deep into how GOOD of sound quality you could get and the interface with aftermarket amplifiers
