As far as i know a lot of new head units make it hard to continue to use the door which sucks. When i get a new double din, i don't need the hood rats checking out my ****

and it is Duplicolor Toyota Blue (i believe) it does have some flake in there. Turned out great imho

Is your radio all the way installed in the last holes of your kit? Have you took the door apart before? Cause i removed the plastic piece thats behind the door, it pops right off with a little force. My door opens and closes with no problems at all and i have an Alpine double din.

It is. I installed it myself. My **** isn't as big as other ***** I've seen in here. (Sounds perverted, huh) You're talking about the black plastic on the back of the radio door? I can easily drill holes, but this would be easier. I have two extra waterfalls. Thanks in advance.

Was painting my bottom waterfall last night and got a run in the clear coat, so I wet sanded it down a couple times, and apparently missed a spot....unknowingly and recleared it. Also noticed that I took some paint off on the corner (its now black)....question is can I re-wet sand and paint again (over the clear coat). Its only one small spot so I dont want to wet sand the whole side just to respray and clear it again. Could I get by just doing the small spot.

What would you guys recommend?

I would assume you have to re-do the whole side. Unless you can manage to ONLY paint that one area that you re-sand.

HVAC controls is one unit, it comes off if you want to paint your waterfall. Just pull the center **** off and then behind the waterfall if i remember correctly i think theirs clips or 4 to 6 screws you just take off then you can remove it. From there you can paint away without messing up the HVAC.
