Single din to double din conversion

[millsy75]

Hello, has anybody done this themselves?

Did you modify your own single din unit or buy a double din unit?

What did you buy? I'm unsure if I just need to buy a double din cage to fit inside my existing centre console or do I need also to change the plastic outer skin of the console? I am aware I need to change the climate unit (or trim)

Thanks.

I recently made mine.
My single din it was like this,ac unit in the center,so i remove the lower section


Then i trim the A/C controller unit to fit in the bottom.It needs trim all over the perimeter,up-down,and in left and right down corners.



For my Alpine double din it was necessary to trim inside the case to remove some plastic material for clearance.



This is the result



The only thing i was buy it was the surounding of the unit.

Take a little effort and time,and the feet is very tight and secure.I am very pleased with the result.
