there is a guy around here that has the same unit installed there and he dug around in a junk yard and found an insert from a smaller toyota that fit perfect. Sorry I don't have any more info but it looked like a factory install.

 

Put a thin piece of plexi paint it black and add a couple of usb outlets. Use yhe two existing screws from the head unit on the bottom then just add two up top. Or you can use black Abs sheet.

 

Thanks guys, I think I'll try and find some sort of black metal or plastic piece to fit in there. Plastic would be easier for me to shape so I'll try that route first, thanks!

 

Go look at some car stereo installation kits. Some of them have storage trays to fill the void when using a single DIN stereo. Might check your local car audio shops. They may have a few laying around that were not used from kits.

 

I've set aside the stereo for now and started working on the speaker pods and speakers. Just an FYI don't install the speaker pods before the glove box sub. I bought both the glove box sub enclosure and the ssv works corner floor pods. Went to go install sub enclosure and it wouldn't fit. Wasn't thrilled after taking my time to install the 6.5" speakers. So I took the right side speaker out and put the glove box in. Had to literally kick the speaker to get it to fit into place grrrrr. Well that's a wrap for tonight. Amp should arrive by thursday, hoping my street legal kit gets here soon since I have everything torn apart.

 

Looking good! Cant wait to see how this comes out.

Geez wish I would of seen that sooner! All done now!

 

So all an all it was a good build. Some bumps along the way but I got it done. The SSV sub glove box doesn't fit my turbo perfectly so the dash went back in kind of tough and the glove box closes hard but it sounds awesome?!?

Here is what it looked like while installing everything. The two ssv works side pods with kicker 6.5 speakers in them and then the glove box 10" sub.

This shows where I had to cut some of the sub guard to get enough room for the head unit to slide into. Not thrilled about that but it was the only modification needed for the Rockford Fosgate PMX5, which by the way is sweeeeet!

Here it is all competed! I ended up making a gap filler plate out of an aluminum door kick I found at home depot. It actually worked out great!

The XM service works perfectly which is why I went with this head unit. I didn't have my wire shipment come in yet or I'd have the LED's in the speakers going. Maybe next weekend, we'll see! Thank for following along.

 

What amp/sub did you use?

 

I used a kicker kx800.5 amp and kicker KM10 sub with less

 

Turned out sweet. Great job.

 

An update.... Decided to clean my rzr today and threw some water at the speakers and the stereo. Heard some weird noises coming from the speakers so I quickly turned off all power to the head unit. Finished washing it and dried it. Turned on the head unit and listened to some music, fine except when i turned it on again 15 min later blue tooth would not work and my phone could not pair with it. I messed with it a bit until I found in the software that the bluetooth option was totally erased. I ordered a new one for the time being but I guess I need to better waterproof this waterproof head unit???? Maybe there was an exposed input wire in the back I missed?!?

Oh and I took a soft towel and windex to the screen as it was dusty... SCREEN IS SCRATCHED so bad its hard to see whats going on?!? Unacceptable and buyer beware. Will probably make a screen protector for the hole face.

 

I have my head unit and 4 6x9's mounted overhead as I was concerned about water. I avoid spraying it anywhere near the stereo stuff but it always gets some on it and so far haven't had an issue.

 

I always use a piece of waterproof foam to cover my stereo when washing it with the power washer, Haven't had any problems.

 

Nice job

Thanks! Besides the head unit acting weird all is well! Shipped the unit back to the seller in California and he said he was going to ship me a new one. Lets hope thats the case and not a refurbished or the same but fixed. I plan to protect the screen with some kind of film so it doesn't scratch and better water proof cables not in use!

 

How do you like the location of those kick panels? Did you loose an room there? I ride with my left foot on the dead petal there constantly and it looks like it might interfere slightly.

 

Im 6' 1" tall and ride with my foot on the dead pedal as well. No issues so far, everything seems to feel natural! I also have the seat all the way back as well!
