anyone got pics of double dins? if not do they fit our cars?

Double Dins are a perfect fit actually. There is no real reason to pay the extra money unless you seriously dont like how the mounting kit looks.

It should fit, but in my opinion it looks ugly. You'd definetly need a dark interior to even begin to make it look half decent.

In my opinion, if you are going to a double din sized system, get one that has a screen that you can watch video on, and has all touch controls. Add Navigation if you can afford it. That's what i am shooting for.

yea i dont think any double dins are nice to be honest but i cannot stand what a headunit looks like not to many options for double dins. yea touch screen dvd would be nice but ur talkin 500 to start

^thats why i sent single din. all the doubles (w/o going all out for a high end touch screen) are hideous.

idk i cant wait to get rid of stock radio i need more power. anyone know what a stock radio puts out?

The head unit itself will only push 150 - 200 watts. I haven't looked at mine too closely, still stuck with a freakin tape deck for the time being.

Double din screens take modification to the bezal. It's better to with a single din flip out screen... I have the new Jensen 7.5" Touch and I accessed the hidden menu, so I could watch dvd's while driving and without having a toggle switch.

Beholder88 · 08-18-2008, 09:27 PM

Unfortunately my Alero came with a tape deck. I think it's a double din. I'll take a snapshot of it and post when I get a chance. Do they make a bezel for just the din and a halves? My head unit from the Malibu is a din and a half, but it seems too wide for the bezel, and too short.

irondiezl3 · 08-19-2008, 06:40 AM

jeenysrider07 · 08-23-2008, 11:41 PM

This is mine, i used some bondo to fill the sides, i realize the paint job isnt that good but i need to put some thing else in wher the cup holder that i converted into a ipod holder is, which should be some time soon so i just threw one coat of paint on for now

joserivas19 · 08-24-2008, 01:13 AM

is there a website where i can find double dash dins? ive looked at best buy, circuit city, walmart and a few local audio stores and no one carries it, or has heard about them available for olds/pontiacs.

jeenysrider07 · 08-24-2008, 01:33 AM

i got mine at circuit city but i would recommend ebay most dbldins are going to fit, maybe with a little modification. But seriouly ebay
