James1981 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 dont u think it would look REALLY awkward with a single din in it? just my two cents, good job, like the background on the D2 =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coxx Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 what a misleading title. it has been possible on the 2.5i for quite some time now "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a! Barack Obama! I'm the president...of hittin' the ass!" -this is not a political view it's merely a quote from a hilarious tv show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackMagicGT Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I dont care if it is 2.5i, it looks cool. If nothing else, I give you props cause this doesn't sound like it was a stroll in the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omani Legacy Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Hmmm I think I can pull something like this in the electronic tempertaure controls Panle!!! I have been planning on doing something but I need to get another electronic tempertaure control system incase I messed up with this one so I think Id better wait till I get my hand on another panel and play with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

072 Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 i pulled the radio out and saw how tricky its going to be to replace the head with electronic hvac, i am suprised to see that the back of my factory nav screen has a video jack on it. i hot wired a dvd player to it and it looks great! hoping to retain the factory screen and install an avic-z1 in the bottom. anyone even attempted this yet?

sixTOO Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 The pics look great...do you have any measurements? I think I'm going to take the plunge and try this myself. Nice install! ok first of this was a piece of cake because i didnt have the electronic tempertaure controls .....mounted d2 to original radio brackets and used metras single din kit Metra’s New 99-8901 Kit Provides Perfect Fit for 2005 Subaru Legacy and Outback but the hardest part was cutting out the metra with a dremel and using body filler and sanding and then finally painting ........ but i have to say it looks damn good and works perfect ...next step take it back out sand it again and have it professional sprayed ..but not anytime soon .....i did enough work for now ..time to sit back and enjoy ohh yeah and i also spent some time hacking the dvd navigation software so it could display my subaru backgrounds and my subaru gauges any questions about this install feel free to ask http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/2849/dsc01282small4yn.jpg http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/4572/dsc01285small0mf.jpg http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/8923/dsc01288small5cz.jpg http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/5066/dsc01289small4sz.jpg http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/928/dsc01292small2do.jpg http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/241/dsc01294small3kg.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCL28 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 That looks pretty damn hot. Were you able to use the factory mounts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCL28 Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Actually, how did you cut it? The DIN opening on the Metra kit looks a little bit wider than that little storage slot above the DIN. Did you use bondo or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bstieritz_GT Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 man that looks hot. I'll be watching for updates on your SATNAV hack...might eventually try this myself. nice job and very clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
