Who cares what we think. As long as you like it, that is all that matters! Enjoy!

First post and right to the point...no B.S Very nice job.

By the way, you almost had me ask about the "Captain" name....until I realized it was "Captian". Good mind trick.

I thought it was just a typo. What am I missing?

Or she simply misspelled the word and I'm overanalyzing it

It wouldn't be the first time that someone misspelled their forum username.

Gratz Lisa! Ironically, I was just looking at upgrading my radio as the original is being quirky and I wondered how a touch screen would look. I'm curious, were there any touchscreen units available that would fit in the stock slot?

Captian Lisa, nice install and it looks like it belongs there.

There is another possibility and that is to use a 1.5 DIN (standard) to a 1.0 DIN adapter (around $15) and install a 1.0 DIN radio with a pop up 7" touch screen. I have done this on two cars and the head unit now incorporates Bluetooth, NAV, aux input, dvd slot, etc. This is sort of the best of both worlds and does not involve cutting the cover panel and reworking it.



I have done something similar with a Jensen head unit but do not have current photos since I sold the car.

Very nice!
I've got a similar kit and a Double DIN Kenwood. All I need is the time to set it up. But you've given me some inspiration...

@ Honest Don I really like that interface. Do you have a write up posted on how to configure the interface for the Pi?
