weeksy Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Was hoping to get info on swapping double din to single din headunit.... is it just a case of fitting a blanker? Also what size are the front/rear speakers? Im hoping to fit 6.5"components in both locations? All help replies are greatfully received. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Yep I had like a coin tray that was under my single din unit before I changed it. And the speakers will need MDF donuts making if the previous owner hasn't done it yet. I had to make some for mine but they will fit :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Well Castle Combes Japfest is booked now. But still have places for Japfest 2. I'm hoping ?I can make that one but depends on the sale of my house and moving as it will more than likely fall around the same time :( But certainly think a big S.O.C meet would be a good thing :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
