I am trying to decide whether to rebuild my dash with a radio cut-out or a blank plate. I do not want a modern looking head unit in the dash. I know I can get a vintage look with modern internal tech, but then why not just hide something?
What does the tribe think? |

What's the model of that head unit? Looks pretty nice. I need to find a better solution for a chrome bezel on mine to tie it with the interior. Mine is a Nurnberg I ordered from Germany. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-20845-1582428805_thumb.jpg) |
