Gday

I am replacing the double din stock player with a single din sized one (JVC LHx500 or something).
That pocket that sits under the player...does that just clip in? or does it screw in? Reason i ask is that ive ordered one, but havent recived it, but i wannabook the car in to get it fitted soonish.

Cheers

OH YEAH!!! I want to get that headunit after someone buys my headunit and amp! :doubt:

Is that the one with the silver face, motorised screen, touchscreen LCD, voice activation etc? where are u getting it from? how much? :P

As for the pocket, from memory, the one in the dashboard is held on by 3 screws. Two on either side and one on the bottom.

Depends if you have Climate Control or not.

If you don't, then there is a screw in the front of it.
If you do, then it is just four screws, two either side.

When i replaced my double din with a single din unit I used a toyota pocket about $34 from Autobarn, it just screws in under the head unit..... looks factory too... :cool:

on that note ... if a toyota pocket fits and anyone wants one give me a yell ... there's about 100+ pockets at work ... we do installs into toyota's everyday and usually just throw them away


genuine toyota pockets :D
