Clean Install of Head Unit without gaps or ugly install kit
I’m interested in replacing a new HU in my 2001 EX Civic, does anyone have any pictures of there installed HU that doesn’t suffer from gaps and cheap look? I was thinking because of the odd shape a double DIN unit would be best with a custom fiberglass surround painted to match exterior pant color. Any ideas? Maybe an Touch sensitive LCD, what do you think that MAX size would be? What about viewing angle issues and sun glare? Know anyone who could do this in the 408 area code?

Rep Power: 417 i dont think mine looks all that bad.. i'm using a "ugly install kit" but it looks pretty nice. people say its almost as good as stock looking. if i find pics at home i'll upload them.
get a normal install kit and so the diy silver paint on it....then no one will know the difference....it will look like it came with the car....just stay away from the one kit that uses the factory bin thing....that one is not a flush kit.....i learned the hard way!!!! and had to get another kit!!
