Always fancied a 7" touch screen myself... can't see it being too much hassle.

theres some sweet JVC units out, but it depends what features your after that will determine what you end up with. get a list of ones you like the look of and some features you'd like, then eliminate them one by one till you get the one your after.

Thanks Robbie, will have a look at JVC.

Don't need very fancy touch screen interfaces, I thought a 2DIN would look good covering the gaping hole beneath my current single DIN CD player!

In addition to the 2DIN, I reckon I would need a new 2DIN bracket to be able to install. Anyone know where to get one? thanks!

I'll see if we can order it through work tomorrow and I'll let you know. Then you can go to one of the stores near you and order it there.

Around $30 for the pair from Mitsubishi Australia, same as the CE Lancer.

Here we go:

I'll see if stinger can get them. If they are the same as the ce lancer should make it easier.

Thanks guys.

Think I need more time to think if I will get the 2DIN, as finances are abit tight at the moment.
