joeshmo94 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 so anyone who has researched the subject of replacing the stock HU in 05-09 legacys knows that.... is a real kick in the dick to change out. I've seen the cubby din install. I've seen the crazy badass (and expensive) JDM hvac kit method BUT Is it possible to just cut the stock hu in half? to separate the climate control from the radio. to have a aftermarket double din and bezel that butts into the stock climate? I'm sure i could make some trim piece to make it look good ill be looking at it tomorrow for myself but i want opinions. in theory would this work? even if they were on the same circuit board.. could a small modification bring my dreams to life? i desperately want a real head unit the parrot mki9100 isn't the same. btw i realize this idea might be really shitty lol thanks to all!

chato Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 they definitely share a board that IIRC that runs vertically between the two components. right where you would cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoobytoScooby Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Check out post number #20 in this thread. I think they got it to work. They have a kind of walkthrough made. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/finally-can-now-install-aftermarket-stereo-136272p2.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
