View Full Version : Galant/380 fascia units interchangeable?

So in my quest to find a double-din fascia for my 380 I came across:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400224968190&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
While it says it's for the Galant, the Aircon openings look to be in the same spot as the 380s. Does anyone know if this would fit?
The reason I am looking at this one is it comes with the side-mount kit. I sent fascias.com.au an email over a week ago asking if theirs came with this and have yet to receive a response.
Cheers.

Thanks. Bought and paid for one last night. Ended up costing exactly AU$35 after PayPal currency conversion. Now I just gotta decide what deck to put in it. Am tossing up between building a CarPC and getting one of those Orion AVR6.1 decks.
BTW Maggie the reason I didn't spot this one when I did search eBay was because the seller didn't explicitly say he would post to AU in the listing parameters. Hence it didn't appear in my search.

Yeah I'm thinking the Orion AVR6.1 also, it has everything you would ever need. I'm just keeping an eye out for a % off sale somewhere so I can try & pick it up a bit cheaper.
I wanted something with better DACs etc but it should still sound good once it gets processed through my MS-8 :)

I know pretty much nothing about car audio, but I assume an MS-8 is some sort of amp :)

Look up JBL MS-8 ... it's a digital processor, it basically will equalise the incoming signal & provide up to 8 channels out. It also equalises the car enviroment & time aligns the sound to all seating locations if you wish. I'm puting in a high end system so want good quality right through.

Now thinking the Clarion NX501A instead ...

Very similar specs to the AVR6.1. I managed to order an AVR6.1 last night during the JB F&F sale for $1256, just need to wait for it to come in as they were out of stock, but I will be waiting a couple of weeks for the new fascia to come in anyway.

Wow :eek2: What's an F&F sale? I never heard about it.
The Clarion doesn't have digital radio but has a higher quality screen & the 24 bit DAC's for SQ.
