    Finally got my Single Din 7" Jensen installed with the Scosche Kit off Ebay for $24. I was trying to go for the Double Din but couldn't seem to sale mine so i just got tired of it and installed it. Turned out really well.. Color matched almost perfect and it lined up with no creases at all. Foldout is kindof high (Like i expected) but i hardly ever watch movies until i'm stopped anyway so thats not that big of a deal i'll mostly just keep it in.

    Looks nice... I just recently replaced my HU and went with a double din... I'm kind of wishing now I went with a single so I had more room to play with.... oh well :)

    yeah, I ran into the same issue... took a little while to get it out... come to think of it, I think that is the part that consumed most of my time when I switched out my factory radio.

    rerouted the wires and add the hazard switch in the coin box thing under the steering wheel. Not all that clean but oh well, hazards works, and the screen came out nice and clean :D
