Give me an idea for the Extra DIN opening
I keep looking at that DIN pocket above my stereo that I never use and wonder what to do with it.

Anyone have a cool idea of what I could put in there? I have a Kenwood MP3 CD player in the other DIN slot.

I was thinking of some sort of visualizer for the stereo but I can't find one.

probably out of anyone's price range but a flip up monitor always attracts some good attention. 8^)

problem with flip up monitor/lcd is that it's a theft magnet!

now, back to the original question...how about an EQ to fill in the gap? it can boost the signal (v) to the amp and give you a cleaner sound.

now the best of both worlds, which i want to do, is to have an eclipse dvd player/screen with a zapco eq...such a beautiful setup!

stupid thieves...

Not a bad idea. The turbo guage wouldn't do much for my TS tho

Seriously, has anyone put the digital guage pack in with the compass and temp guage in that din slot??

How about an indash CD changer? I was using an Eclipse 5303R and an Eclipse CD changer. It worked really well and filled in the empty spot.

Holy freaking ish!

The web page said L325 ... which at today's nasty exchange rate of about 1:1.75 is $635 Wait until it goes back down to 1:1.25 (a.k.a. $400)
