Post Pics of your HU thread

i'm looking for something that looks good, is affordable, and produces more power and bass than the crappy stock deck...

turboslug will become famous soon enoughturboslug will become famous soon enough


i finally found a nice deck that looks closer to STOCK without having to fork out a ton of $$$ for a nakimichi!! i dont like flashy HU's. i prefer something that has a conservative clean look.

the 2004 line of clarion decks have matte black plastic and black aluminum on the face. the backlight can be adjusted to the stock orange color to match the dash lights.

here's a pic of the 845mc w/ music catcher...the actual deck looks way better in person

i agree that the 2004 clarion line was very attractive. the 745mp was a really good deck and nice looking.

i'll have pics of my clarion drz9255 with my "custom" dash tomorrow (or later tonight). my first effort at custom work, i think it turned out okay, but i'll let you guys be the judges.

That Clarion deck does look nice..

But the Nak I bought was actually cheaper than the Clarion you have there...

here are a couple pics:

in this first one, you can see one of my problems areas, the bottom right just below the deck, there is a line, thats a low spot that i should have filled in or sanded better:



in this second pic, you can see a line to left below the deck, again, its something that should have been sanded better:



i will fix those soon, the deck is coming out for more finishing touches, just have no time.

Did you just change the LEDs in your dash to get that green?

definately a waste of space, i think a double din headunit would have looked better, but i love my headunit, i cant give it up for anything at this point. i just didnt care for the pocket, so i didnt incorporate one into the dash. besides, the deck is centered and recessed, and i dont get much, if any, sun light glare on it now.
