Maybe worth a look. Would look good with the '01-'02 Sport Ed.

That looks pretty good. I followed Butnut's lead and painted it with some silver high temp spray paint and it turned out really good also.

I have a carbon fiber overlay to match the rest of my dash. You can sort of see it in these pics.

That dash looks sweet! Something on my list if I ever get a 3rd gen.

Sleepy--I'm wondering about that inside/outside temp gauge too! Pretty neato. Is that close to about 1/2 din size?

Well, have fun you all.

yeah Im pretty sure it will fit in the 1-din slot, just that I was too tied down for time when installation that i didn't want to try to fit it in there, right now my screen remote is velcrod onto there.i'm not sure about 1/2din size.....it's a fizz brand? Don't know how much it was, I got it as a gift, but the only problem is that the number don't light up when it's dark, like Jason's one does, mine is there is a button to press which makes the backlight come on, but i'm sure someone could probably rig is so that when it's dark and you turn your lights on the backlight is on all the time, that might drain the battery though

Adding the temp gauge is one of my favorite after-thougths...

I fried my Temp guage, i was only running 190 resister
I am on a hunt for a different brand, the one from target didn't last too long.

I had a hard time finding a 160 resister, but I thought that a 190 would work, but the display was so dark, that I couldn't see it, and the green backlight (which I soldered to stay on) burned out. It was only two months old.
So now I have a blank screen until I either get another one.
