also if anyone can help, need help on finding a good dash kit for the new head unit, preferably something that will let me keep the door to the storage space under the radio...
thanks again!!!!

Unfortunatly the only one that I know of that will let you do that is the basic metra kit, but it looks bad IMO. Your much better off getting the better metra kit I believe its a 99-7899 kit. You'll lose the flip door tho but I think it looks 10 times better.

I have the one that looses the door. And i use that compartment more now than when i had the door.

where do i find the metra kit? online? if so how much?

do you think there is any way i'd be able to play around with it and get the door to stay of i modify it at all?

i haven't seen it yet so i have no clue what it looks like or if i can do anything to it at all, just thinking...

I like the Metra kit....It fit nice in my dash....I just wish the flip door was there...I miss it.

I got a kit from circuit city... Ithought that that was an unlikely place to get it but i talked to some dude in the car stereo section and he got me a dash kit. It was black and I believe it still had that little storage box. Its called a Turbo kit but I will get you the details tonight.

Metra's turbo kit #99-7897 is the only kit on the market that will allow you to keep your flip up door. Metra's other kit (#997899), and all kits made by other manufacturers like Scoche, AMI, etc., replace the factory pocket. I've had both and i definitly prefer the turbo kit, because it is an iso mount kit and i was able to slightly modify it so i can see my radio display better.

i have the metra kit that allows me to retain the factory pocket with door, but i also had the metra kit that replaced the factory pocket, and imo, the one that replaced the pocket looked best.

check out my pics and see for yourself:
this is the kit that allows you to keep the pocket:

notice how the kit is lighter than the rest of the dash? it also doesn't fit very well, but you would have to see it in person to tell. the only thing i like about it is that i still have the factory pocket, otherwise, this kit sucks.

this is the one i have before:

looks better, matches the dash better and fits perfectly, only downside is the pocket. i dont know about the rest of you guys, but i thought the pocket was too small and shallow when compared to the factory pocket.

cool guys...
i think i still want the 7897 that lets you keep the door, i like the flat look, not the open empty look...
