if you reread what i wrote, i said i have never heard of buying one. sooooo sorry i'm wrong.

stock tint is about 20% (mine says 17%, i don't know yours). do get my front two done, it was $50. price usually doesn't change on percentages. i have 20%, my brother has 35%, my cousin has 5%. all cost the same.


i agree with bob that if all you want the double din for is the usb, buy what he linked

 

With my tint you can't see a single thing inside except for the flashing red light of the double din and the flashing blue light of the alarm system.

I thought about getting or making a fake faceplate too but decided in the end that I'd get sick of putting it on and taking it off so I never went with one.

These work great too:

 

But those are slightley illegal to use for theft prevention.

 

all depends where you live and how you use it

 

If you could get a faceplate with a casette slot it'd be even better. If you're dropping the money on a double DIN JUST for the USB port, then buy a head unit with a detachable faceplate and iPod control... Double Din's are nice, but if you're just buying a HU for a freakin USB port wouldn't it make more sense to get something less expensive, but probably just as good? I've been running a single DIN since 08 and love it to death. The detachable faceplate has keept thieves out of 2 trucks now, and I have parked overnight in some pretty shady neighbourhoods (Surprised my truck wasn't on blocks in the morning actually, but that may be because they're only 18's)

 

I want a DD but I have a '02 w/ a 1 1/2 din. I'm ordering all new spakers, building a custom box and would love to have the since radio to go w/ it but o well can't win them all.

 

I have narrowed my search to two stereos: one is single din, and the other is double din.

do you ever plan on expanding your radio? amplify your speakers and so forth?

 

Dont know what you mean by amplifying my speakers, but I am going to get some new speakers.

 

That sounds like a no.
