Hey man, nice FJ! How did the stereo upgrade go? Did it work? I bought that same exact trim bezel to do exactly what you are doing, BUT I found the opening on the bezel to be made for a certain Chinese stereo (the opening is not a perfect rectangle, and angles down from top to bottom) , and it doesn’t look like a rectangle 9” receiver will fit it.. but, I haven’t tried yet.. wondering what you found.
@AndreHaroldDancs
@AndreHaroldDancs Ай бұрын
I actually kind of forgot about it since the weather has been nice out here in Canada, but I’ll get it done this summer and I know what you’re talking about with the Chinese receiver and the slight angle. The stereo that is pretty much a perfect fit in the new bezel hole is a 8” Pioneer DMH-C5500NEX it’s a double din stereo and you can get them on Amazon. Stereo fits good at the bottom of the slide and will have a tiny one that gap towards the top that needs to be filled, I’m just pretty busy right now with spring business and then I’ll get it done and post some videos.

It might be ALMOST ridiculous making a video about this but certainly not ridiculous. I have a JDM camper van and getting in and out was an adjustment. I pretty much do what you do, sometimes adding a little bounce on the way up. I bought an out-of-state FJ. Waiting for delivery, so definitely interested in anything FJ. The looking around is a nice touch because, the reality is, it’s never going to be as smooth getting into something lifted as slipping into a sedan. Thanks 🌸

I’m still learning how to make videos but I’m more conscious on putting in more details for the future.
