Installing double din screen/satnav p38

P38 DUB · Oct 6, 2009

This is my first post of many i hope so go easy on me.lol

I want to install a double din headunit into my p38. The idea was install it where the factory original satnav goes. so i bought a p38 without a satnav (save on price, and i heard there not that good) so the one i have only has a cubby hole. but i have had a look an it doesnt pop out or anything there are people on ebay selling the Factory sat navs so i asked them how you install them they say cut around the cubby box.

i just wanted to know if anyone had done this before or if any one has any suggestions, an how much room is behind the cubby hole.

i dont do the off roading mine is for road only so i have to big wheels an loud system an i want a screen an sat nav to go with it. some my hate it but i love it.

anyway if anyone has any help that would be appreciated.

Cheers

to save a lot of time and grief why not get a slide out screen/cd player and run the sat nav via that.

have a search for 'car pc' they are double din but with all the functionality of your computer, plus more upgradeable storage than you'll ever need!
