Default Dimensions of Apexi VAFC??

Does anybody have the dimensions of the Apexi VAFC control unit? I'm trying to figure out where I would put it if I got it.

Also, by any chance, anybody in the MD area that has one installed?

thanks for the info guys. One more question, is that the only way the display can be seen, or can it be flipped vertically?

It will fit in the dome light hole... I checked. I saw a Prelude with it installed like that. You can get some more info on it, including painting it black (to match the interior) here:

The "radio door flap" idea sounds pretty good to me- if it fits. It's about 1" thick, if I remember, max. On that page I also wrote up how to make a DIN (radio) mount for it.

Thanks for the link Marcucci, will you be making a harness for it, or splicing the cables? The only thing holding me up right now is this harness problem. I'll try to see if there is a way to build one with scrap parts or whatever this upcoming week.

where do you run your wire to? I pulled my dash and ran it into thedash right behind the center heater vent. cleans it up a little. no dangling wires.
