Question Double DIN? Bose surround?

It looks as tho the 1g has a double DIN radio bezel? Question here, has anyone installed a Pioneer AVIC (Navi) unit in a 1st gen? If so can you please provide pictures? Any trouble with the installation?

Also, what does the bose audio system include? Are there any benefits/reductions when using an aftermarket H/U? Do you loose any features?

Thanks.

I wish I were using a double din, but I'm using a single motorised. Someone else has a double on the boards, I think. Anyhow, unless you search on the board for my resistor trick, using an aftermarket HU will result in your ceiling-mounted mid-ranges not working, but other than that, a Metra wiring harness and you're set.

So no aftermarket wiring harness supports the mid ranges (built in resistor or series wiring)?

I'm sorry but the search function on here sucks and I can't find your resistor trick writeup. Can you please explain some more in detail or provide a link please?

Is Metra just your brand preference for the wiring harness or the only company that makes one for the 1G TL?
