This works great, except that the screen is a little to low to follow while driving and it partially blocks the heater controls. The other problem I have with the dash is that center vents are at just the right hight so that when the air is on it freezes my right hand and when the heat is on it dries out my right eye. What I need to know is can I move the kenwood up to where the vent is now and the vent down to the place for the radio. Is there enough room to run a vent tube down behind the head unit to reach the new vent location?
It's definitely doable but it would be completely one-off and we'd need the car to do it which you being out in WA makes for quite a conundrum. Things to keep in mind with this would be we'd need a donor vent to mount the radio as one of them will need to get hacked to be placed into the radio portion of the dash. It wouldn't be too difficult from a standpoint of rerouting the air from the vents but you would need to pull the entire dash out to do so meaning lots of work. One bad thing about this car is you can't move the climate control as the vent selection is direct drive mechanical meaning there are two little tubes if you will coming out from behind the climate control ***** and going right into the vent selector in the dash. I'd love to do something like that for you but I don't see it happening unless you were going to vay-kay for a week in MN. Duluth is pretty in the fall.
Wish I could be of more help.
