Hi all,
Now my car is back up and running, I'm desperate to tinker, particularly tidying up the interior.
I've got a HKS EVC 6 boost controller that I put in a "temporary" position (8 years ago) above the single DIN stereo. The stereo is currently in the lower section of the double-din area.
My plan is to change the stereo to a double din unit and move the boost controller elsewhere, but I'm not sure where? Has anyone come up with novel ideas of where to put theirs? I've got a defi boost gauge so I don't have to see the controller all of the time. I did think about hiding it in the arm rest, although the controller for the gauges is already in there.
I'm thinking of getting the Pioneer SPH-DA120, mainly for the apple carplay. Has anyone fitted one of these into the double din? If so, is it a straight fit? Is there anything else that needs to be done for it to work? I've not fitted a stereo in years, and I'm hoping it'll be plug and play. While I'm at it, I'm going to replace the speakers. I've ordered a set of the speaker conversion for the fronts. Are the rears a standard fit?
Are there any suggestions for reversing camera's? It'd be amazing to have one that utilises the stereo. Its a very tight squeeze into my garage, anything that makes it easy would be huge.
And finally, I'll be replacing the stock dials. I bought a set of Speedhut custom dials years ago and I've never got around to replacing them so its time to give it a go. Any advice or suggestions welcome. it looks really easy on the instructions they sent, which is a worry!
