    Double Din Attempt

          In the event of a rapid windshield fog up, which of the 3 cables do you now pull on, or push on, to redirect air towards the windshield?

          Leave it to the Germans to do engineering. Srsly.

            that seems to be missing a lot of necessities

                LEts be fair - A for effort. Right?

                But, D- for execution. You would have gotten an F, but the lack of bondo saved you.

                  Yep, that looks pretty terrible. I see what you were going for, but...

                    maybe if you dress it up in argyle, paint it some ridiculous color, rust it, or put a sticker on it at a canted angle r3v will like it.

                      At least you made an attempt. Maybe you can put your HVAC under the DD where the ash tray use to be.

                      I would have put in a stereo blank and left the HVAC alone. Then remove the ash tray and make a slanted platform to put the DD on.

                          Well, there's defrost. But seeing the engineering potential of this candidate I would think it's been rewired to cue a retractable disco ball that's going to come out of the air vents. or something.

                          I foresee regret the first instance the OP follows a garbage truck full of 1 week old indian food and can't splice together fast enough the two wires that used to be the recirc button.

                            In my opinion it looks bad.

                              It looks terrible. You'd be better off with a single din flip out or perhaps something underneath in the pocket/ashtray area.
