That's a very good idea Jewls. I like the fact that the AI kit has the HU at the bottom because I don't want my dvd sys screen to block the vents. Good luck and keep us posted.

Happy Holidays!

It actually dropped down to 25 freakin degrees here last night, so gonna wait until it warms up a little before playing in the garage! And to think I moved to FL to be WARMER!!! :roll:

Hey Jewls...any progress or updates??

by **Jewls** » Fri Feb 11, 2005 3:55 pm

Sorry dude, totally forgot about this. I have been SOOOO busy lately, I might end up just getting the silver kit online. I have to wait for the bf to get home because I can take it apart, but cannot put it back together if I paint this one.

Haa yeah i gotcha. Im just trying to figure out what kit to go with. Either the scosche kit which doesnt match in color perfectly, or the AI kit which doesnt fit perfectly...i dunno :-?

Decisions, decisions............... :lol:

Wouldn't it be nice if one of the companies made one that fit AND matched?!

Best kits just came out with one that is two single din opening. they
are much better than AI. Im planning to get this one and spray it silver to match the interior or take the scoshe one and chop it up to make my own.

i bleive the interior plastic has a color code as well, what you can do is get a can of paint match from a paint shop to match it up OR go do the whole dash!!!

I already have some silver paint, just not so sure it will match, we will see.

That kit looks terrible and i dont mean the color difference, sorry

Looking forward to hearing how the paint job goes. I think I like the black kit from Best Kit because of the reason an earlier poster said. I plan on getting the DVD w/ screen and if it is too high, it'll block the vents.

Does the black kit at least match the black dash?

I wonder if a single din sized center channel speaker would fit in the empty slot above?

The black matches pretty well, it is just a different type of plastic/material. There are pictures of mine on a few threads here as well as the website I bought it from.

just an idea (i dont have gen2):
instead of worrying about matching the replacement piece with oem a/c housing piece thing... just paint the both of them with whatever color you think looks the cleanest. you will never get the same exact look just by painting the new piece.
but like i said, thats what i would probably do. but i dont have one

Jewls,

Ever get a chance to try the color matching on your AI kit?
