Any people want to do a dash navi install day?
Thinking of trying to do a dash install on mine with a Pioneer F500BT which on ebay refurbished are only $130 plus shipping and offers a lot of things especially for the price.
Saw someone in the gallery who just installed it and it looks great. Just need that and the bezel and then some work getting the bezel to fit right I guess with a heat gun or something it looks like.
Heres the unit:

And here is the thread from he install of it by another member on here.

Maybe it's harder than it looks but I don't know. Seems pretty straight forward at least the cutting part and all. No rerouting anything is needed since this unit is not deep.
I think I'm gonna order the stuff up soon but just seeing if anyone else is interested in doing it as well.
Hopefully soon for me... Now who cuts first is the question lol

I call I'm not 1st lol. haha should be easy though. If you just pop the gauge bezel out you can see the bracket behind the dash where you should cut. But I will definitely do a small hole at first and get bigger and bigger to prevent any big screw ups.
Can get the navi and bezel for like $250 or less. Prety sweet. Can sell of my unit and all and be $100 down out of pocket.

Do it up. Looks awesome from the pics. And really inexpensive with this new unit. Has an SD slot so can buy a 32gb one or something and loud it with music or movies and have all that on it too which is sweet. Heard the bluetooth isn't the best but will prolly be fine.
Looks so much better having it in the dash and much more convenient as well.

if you guys need a hand let me know ive done a few of these..
Im sure we will.. Is it as easy as it sounds? Do you normally heat up and remold the oem bezel to angle diff way?
