Double Din?

Has anybody found a way to access the appropriate face plates to accommodate a double din enclosure?

this cassette tape is killing me.

i'm working on a few ideas....

my hu and cd changer are shot. i've looked back there and it is possible to put a 2-din. i'm considering moving the a/c control to where the storage bin is (deleting the storage) and putting in a 2-din win ce 8" screen where the a/c and radio go - yeah, would have to retrofit somehow, but probably not too much! still just thinking and looking...

look here....(page down once) for the Euro Command Kit View topic - Im now the proud owner of a 2002 E320 4Matic!! | THE Mercedes-Benz & AMG Forum for and by the Enthusiasts | MyMBonline.com

hey, do you hang out at vwvortex? i used to have a leased 2006 passat, now traded for 2010 cc - love it! this is my first MB and v6!

dbl din retrofits have been posted on 210 forums here and Benzworld. I didn't
save the links because I never thought I'd perform the mod. I recall pics and
DIY type descriptions.

i've seen 2DIN panel on Ebay...am guessing from Potomac

Nice, thanks. I was looking for something ready to go. I don't have the time to custom fabricate anything. But this guy, steve, might just be my saving grace! thanks for the link!

I'm on the tex, but under a different username. Just read, never really posted.

I'm an active member on golfmkv.com under the same username.

Looks like another great source for parts in general.
thanks!
