Title: Things to put in a DIN slot?
Post by: Jimp on 29 September 2008, 22:10: I'm going to put my Sony headunit back into the mk5 since I miss the front aux and usb slots. Instead of a having a cubby hole in the second DIN slow, does anyone have some ideas for what to put in there? The only other thing off the top of my head that would fit is a slot for gauges.
Any other ideas?

Post by: LazyLunatic on 29 September 2008, 23:06: gauges would be cool, boost gauge would cool, temp gauge, etc. Probs fit 3 gauges on a single DIN.

blanking plate would be cool too. llama is totally the coolest though!!! love 'em!

I was seriously considering a slide out VGA touch screen for a carputer along with a std headunit in my Mk5. :)

Maybe some day, but it's on hold for a while since the budget is a bit stretched :grin:. I've had the Sony for a while and am replacing the stock double DIN headunit because I'm really missing the front aux and usb slots.
