Has anyone wired up a double din stereo in civic 06?

[ozR18]

Yup. I got it from Kah Motor which is the Honda dealer in SG. You have to go to the parts department. I got additional honda console from them as well for 80. The console has a anti-open mechanism tat prevents it from accidentally opening when going upslope. Installed an Alpine 9861 and the console below it yesterday. Got the installer to put a hole in the console so that the ipod can be conectted thru that. Alas!...the tweeter fell off today though...


Brought back a "3M" Nomand mat back as well when i was there....
Got a dust filter for SGD78 from mc well ventures while i was there...kinda ex but was running out of time to be searching for it.

Can we have a look at it (pics)...damn im excited!

You guys can consider Alpine IVA-W200 2Din DVD Player.
A very nice 2DIN DVD Player that blend wells with FD, especially the display is blue in color. It's a touch-screen 24bit DAC DVD/CD player. Connecting of ipod, external GPS and Reverse camera is possible with this HU too. Retaining of existing steering control is also possible with an add-on adaptor sold seperately. Not sure Aussie FD comes with steering control.





The HU panel can be changed away, as Honda did come out original parts for FD HU panel..

Haha I've been to McWell... lol it's funny to hear these Singaporean places mentioned on OzHonda.

Wow looks very nice there mate. Haha now I wonder if maybe I should've taken that approach... but then I have to admit, I am pretty happy with my system and whilst no DVD playback, it's sufficient for my need. Your pic looks very tempting though!

LOL it's funny to see this thread still here since there's other ppl asking about the double DIN kit on the Civic 2001+ forum.

Just came back from McWell's and they seem to stock A LOT of gear. I talked to one of the guys there and they said they are slowly exporting to Aus (for customers who already buy from them) so it shouldn't be long before they start doing it more... maybe that'll be a new way to source this gear.
