    Anyone have a picture of a 10" head unit in a 3rd gen? The brand doesn't matter, I'm just trying to get a feel for how big it would be. Feel free to add anything larger if you have them.

    Edit. Here is an 11"

    I’m interested in this as well. I’ve been considering installing a Jensen CAR1000. If anyone has done this I’d like to hear your impressions of it.

    If you can’t find any photos cut a piece of cardboard to spec and tape it to your existing radio. At the very least you’ll be able to get an idea of how much room a 10” unit will take up.

    Thanks. I found a picture of that and added it to my original post. It's annoying that Alpine would sell something like this with such a terrible display.

    A pound of rocks, of course. That way you can take pictures of all of those heavy, heavy rocks and post them in the "Tacomas Doing Work" thread for lots of likes.

    You'll get no street cred for hauling feathers. :proposetoast:

    OP I'm thinking they are saying you want a pic to know what 10" Feels like? Probably could have worded different with these shenanigans! :boink::goingcrazy:And then you went and used the word head on top of that. :eek:
