Installing Alpine Head Unit in Compartment?
After seeing this thread:
https://mbworld.org/forums/showthrea...threadid=71664
(specifically the last photo)
I became interested in installing a head unit such as the Alpine IVA-D300 in that compartment below the Radio and above the ashtray in the 1999 W210 E320.
Any resources/guidance out there for how to do it? I mean, does one have to gut out the compartment and install some type of cage to hold the new HU? Would a Standard DIN Unit just slide in if just the rear of the compartment were sliced of? How do you remove the pocket in the compartment anyway? Etc...
Thanks,
Hish
I would appreciate any help.
