I have a friend with a Mark VIII and he wants to know if a double din will fit and if they sell a kit for it. Any pics would be great. Thanks in advance
 
Either you dont know what Im talking about or I dont understand you, but if you are trying to be funny, let me clarify. There is a kit for aftermarket stereos that audio shops sell. This kit allows you to correctly brace and mount an aftermarket radio into the same spot as an oem radio. I do not have a Mark, I have a LS so I have not gone to an audio shop to ask if they sell one for a Mark. The answer that I am looking for is yes (they sell them at audio shops e.g best buy, audiovice etc.) or no ( I had to make my own bracket to make it fit correctly)
 
Oh, I know what you're asking. You obviously don't understand what I'm poking fun at, so I'll try to clarify it for you. I'll even type slowly, so you can keep up. :lol:

SALE
sale |sāl| noun 1 the exchange of a commodity for money; the action of selling something : we withdrew it from sale | the sale has fallen through. • ( sales) a quantity or amount sold : price cuts failed to boost sales. • ( sales) the activity or business of selling products : director of sales and marketing. 2 an event for the rapid disposal of goods at reduced prices for a period, esp. at the end of a season : a clearance sale. • [often with adj. ] a public or charitable event at which goods are sold. • a public auction. PHRASES ( up) for sale offered for purchase; to be bought : cars for sale at reasonable prices. on sale offered for purchase : the November issue is on sale now. • offered for purchase at a reduced price. ORIGIN late Old English sala, from Old Norse sala, of Germanic origin; related to sell .

SELL

sell |sel| verb ( past and past part. sold |sōld|) [ trans. ] 1 give or hand over (something) in exchange for money : they had sold the car | the family business had been sold off | [with two objs. ] I was trying to sell him my butterfly collection.

If you still don't get it, then spelling pwns you. (Yes, it's spelled "pwns" on purpose.


To repeat what I originally said... I don't thik anyone SELLS anything like that. You really don't need it anyways. Only time you'd need something like an install kit is if you were putting a single DIN into a bouble DIN or 1.5 DIN opening.
 
din

He was making fun of your grammar. It’s not sale it's sell.

As far as I know I think most double din units come with brackets in the box with the radio. The double din should be an install and go. I don't know if there is any installation kit or not.


got to it before i could :D
 
you have to cut 1/4 inch on top of the opening for a double din to fit, just get the unit, measure, mark were youre gonna cut and cut away, all of those universal brackets and what not do not apply to a Mark VIII, unit just fits snuggly in the opening, on a Gen 2 like mine you may have to relocate the air bag module, i just had to push it up and reroute the harness to the buttons for the message center, and what i believe was the interior temp sensor.....hose???........i dont i just rerouted that thing, fits fine :D

I think everyone types mistakes, didnt really catch it. I wasnt trying to write a book or anything. good catch though. I completely missed the whole meaning of your post. Was thinking that you were just bsing. I do feel pretty slow at this point. Thanks for the pics also.
