alpine head unit problem

genesispoopoo · 12-23-2009, 01:33 AM

not really anything in particular, was looking at the w505, just trying to make the cockpit look nicer, and to play around with it. the stock bose is more than enough for me. theres no way i could fit a double din unit in there? (in dash)

I have an Alpine W505 in mine. But my car didn't have Nav in it so my head unit was already a double din sized unit.

Nah sorry mate, unfortunately (well not really) the Aussie ones come only with Nav so no other head units can go in... I'd prefer the nav anyway, coming from the 7" screen in the 350z, I always remember looking at the Jap ones which had nav and thinking they looked so much neater.

If you want better sound do what I just did (just finished it now lol) added an amp and subs to the stock bose... sounds great.
