I was wondering if you could still have the cover panel thing to cover your head units if you had a in-dash DVD unit? It would help out a lot from people lookin in my car to see if i have anything under the panel. If it can not work are there any mods in order to keep it there when being able to flip out the LCD?

 

if its an "In-Dash" then yea you can keep the door, if its a "Flip-out" then it either wont flip out all the way or you would need to remove the door.

 

I have my Avic D2, and it fits perfect behind the stock door.

 

In-dash will work. You just have to play with the stock brackets a bit so the door can close. Flip-out; forgetaboutit.

 

eclipse avn5435, no problem. Just drill 2 new holes in the stock brackets to prevent it from being too far back and too far in!

 

i have a flip-out dvd player and i had to remove the door. the problem with flip outs are that if u mount it in far enough back for the door tho close then it won't flip out all the way and if u mount it foward enuff to get the flip-out to work then u can't close the door. it sux that i don't have a door now but o well.

 

i have an Avic-Z1 and it fits perfectly with the door there

 

I have a flip out and the cover is still on. I had to modify the cover with a dremel tool to allow room for the screen to flip all the way up.

So to all the people who say that you can't keep the cover with a flip out, this is not true. All you have to do is a little cutting of the cover.

 

can u post a pic please. i have tried everything i could think of and i still couldn't get the cover on.

 

 

so u basically cut off the bottom portion of the door to allow the deck to flip up?

 

ohh, i see how that works. its a good idea, but the cut is kinda messed up. it wouldn't work for me tho i have an equalizer in the bottm pocket.

 

basically, but I did leave some of the door on both sides of the bottom. the n2 only has a 6.5" screen. If yours is 7", then you might have to cut off the entire bottom section. Definitely measure a few times before you cut.

 

naw 6.5 only.

 

thats what mine looks like...clearly doable for an in-dash

 

just installed mine this weekend, took me two tries to get it back far enough but the door closes just fine

 

works for me:

i have another question too.....do the alpine and pioneer dvd-indash's that have GPS have to use satellite or do you download the maps. Oh and is it free?

 

This could actually look kinda hot if the cut was straighter and finished off somehow to give it a more factor look. And the suggestion about the eE in the second din there that would look tight...it would look like you had a built in EQ. Hook the lights up for the EQ to the dimmer so its even more factory. Cool idea about cutting the bottom though, just needs to be done much better!! But i mean if you don't mind jagged edges lol then its all good. And its understandable since the AVIC-N1 and N2 are great products.

I wanted to ask those with these products what they've thought of them so far?
