BoneZ System Build

Sadly, my factory dash speakers must go under the knife. CDT's fit right in there.

Looks like everything is powering up. I'm digging the Kenwood.



Looks like a car again.

Done for today. All that's left is to hook up everything in the hatch and start tweaking.

When you installed the head unit, did you use the factory mount?

No, it wouldn't work. I used the Metra 99-7607B kit. The radio was a bit of a booger getting in the kit, but I finally beat it into submission. It looks good in there.

Well, now you've got me nervous. I have everything ready to do my own HU install this weekend...except a dash kit.

After reading this thread:
Metra 99-7607B dash kit for Nissan 370Z is NOW AVAILABLE!

I didn't think I'd need one, and could just reuse the factory one. But your experience says otherwise, so now I'm not so sure.

I tried to use the factory bracket at first, but there were no matching bolt holes in my radio.

I am reusing the factory one with my pioneer and it it worked out OK. There is a small gap around the radio though.
