Is the stereo not supposed to go in it an angle? So the face sits flush with your adapter plate??

I am supposed to be looking into making a nice fascia panel for Nightyard when i get round to it i will post some pics might be of interest for a few people.

There's a clip or plate which doesn't allow it to go in at an angle. Dunno maybe you can force it another way. But it's not as bad as it comes across in the photo.

Why not look at a double DIN facia whilst your at it?

Yep, c'mon MM, still looking at an Asteroid smart myself so DD fascia would be interesting! My only problem is DSP.

vanilla, I am now considering a new stero and have briefly looked at pioneer, my questions are does the steering wheel controls work and does the rear parking sensors beep come through the radio?

Machine monkey, did you make a facia panel?

Taz, I don't have steering wheel controls or parking sensors so can't help you there I'm afraid. It's a good radio but mainly designed for your own media as the auto-seek/tuning function doesn't work too great, can be a bit quiet when you're driving long distances but I normally use bluetooth iTunes etc.

No, they are independently wired. Iirc they have their own speaker

cheers Stuart

vanilla, which unit did you fit?

I'm considering the pioneer deh-x8600bt

There is a lead you can buy to retain the steering wheel controls, I bought it from the car audio centre opposite strangeways.
