ok first of this was a piece of cake because i didnt have the electronic tempertaure controls .....mounted d2 to original radio brackets and used metras single din kit

Metra’s New 99-8901 Kit Provides Perfect Fit for 2005 Subaru Legacy and Outback

but the hardest part was cutting out the metra with a dremel and using body filler and sanding and then finally painting ........ but i have to say it looks damn good and works perfect ...next step take it back out sand it again and have it professional sprayed ..but not anytime soon .....i did enough work for now ..time to sit back and enjoy
ohh yeah and i also spent some time hacking the dvd navigation software so it could display my subaru backgrounds and my subaru gauges

any questions about this install feel free to ask

metra doesnt make a double din kit but they make a single din kit and u can modify it with a little bondo and sandpaper and paint

if u have a legacy gt = screwed..u cannot do a aftermarket system unles u cut up the circuit board ..because the temperture controls and the radio share the same circuit board ....but it has been done soo it is possible ...but thats a little too crazy even for me .....
