double din install & quality Qjuestion

[Johnny5]

hi guys, so installed the nav/bluetooth headnit without trimming the bezel as i got the 6.1inch screen. My only question is does anyone else hroave white noise with the radio on. I was told it i bc you have 2 amp (headunit & amp on each speaker) and it causes distortion. ANyone else expeience this? Any solution to fet rid of the static/whitnoise?????


Can you bypass the stock amps to get rid of distortion

Is it same pitch tone or alternator whine?

You need an adapter if you are going to use the stock bose speakers and amps with an aftermarket head unit. I'm using the PAC OEM-1.

thanks loco bob. Did anyone post a how to for a double din install with pics or very detailed? I've been wanting to get this done for some time now after staring at the kenwood box for months

The only thing i need photos of is what to dremel cut to make sure my double din fits all the way in.

every double din radio is "slightly" different
so take yor time, insert radio and trim a little, as needed.
some time you have to cut the back plastic wall behind the radio to achieve the proper depth.
and the front factory bezel has to be filed a bit as well.
take your time its easy

Don't try to cut it. It's impossible to cut straight. Use masking tape to mark how much trimming you need and use a grounding wheel and file to grind it down. 90-91 car bezel don't need much trimming.
