Hey all,

Well I switched my stock deck for an aftermarket one and now I am missing the lcd screen which really sucks. Anybody know how I can somehow keep it there so I can actually use my auto-climate control ? Please let me know if you know of a way.

Thanks

Hi guys!

I'm curious about this too.

Is there a way to maintain the basic information that the "info" button displays as well?

I have a speed 3 as well, but once the stock head unit is removed.... the "info" button is pretty much rendered uselss i guess?

Questions:
1. Is there a way to retain the "info" button readouts as well?

2. Is an adaptor always necessary in order to retain steering wheel controls?

3. Does anyone know if there's a replacement faceplate around the "climate" controls knobs/buttons to match the black above and below?

I would like to get a 2DIN setup going just like the above pictures as well... but curious what the drawbacks are.

Speedbaby, can you send me a pm as well for the link. For future reference i'd like to know what i can doooo..
