Hi

I have an OPEL ASTRA 2007

And i have installed an Avic-f900bt. And meany tankt to this forum, I have been abel to make the avic unit more like what i wantet. So tankt to all that have found out all this cool stuff.

OK back to my problem.

In the astra the avic unit and it placed a bit low in the console. And i would like to buy a fram 2 din mount that i can tilt 15-30° so that the screen point a bit more directely agenst mi. Anybody know if there is somthing like this that is possibel to get/buy somewere? I live in Norway an nobody her have see it, and no shop have it.

Tankt in advance.

your probably going to need to have something fabricated. fiberglass is probably your best option.

hey knutmw I have a Saturn Astra (opel/holden/Vauxhall Astra) as well and I am gonna have the same problem as you in a bit (well later on today when my mounting kit comes in) I was just thinking even if we made one from fiberglass the metal bracket would still be straight would it not? I asked a installer and he told me to get a tilt screen

well, if you can make it work, the avic unit can be mounted at up to a 30 degree angle. double check the installation manual, but i think thats what it said.

I had my unit mounted i a shop, because it's -20°C and no garaged:-)

But when the summer is comming, i an going to dismount it and try to find av way to tilt the whole frame. When that is done, I have to make some sort of frame to the part that is outside the dash.

I was thinking maybe getting som black pianocoated plastic an make a pice fit there. And glue it til the metallfram that is on the outside.

But it had been much more easy if it was a prefabrikated frame, that can be tilted.

Sorry for my bad english.
