so does the one on ebay seem to fit??

thats kinda directed to those who ordered it already..

It has a suction cup on the back of the face that sticks to the screen. It works well although the suction cup is not necessary in my case. The knob on the front is used to twist the suction cup loose for removal.

Is this gonna fit the Avic Z110BT model???????

well bad news for Z110 owners

 

I have had this faceplate for a few days and just decided to do a test fit.

 

With your trim ring on, this faceplate WILL NOT fit. Its about a half inch to short length wise.

 

With trim off, its very snug and almost difficult to get on or off. I supposes that not bad but

I feel like I am going to break something if I try and force it. PLUS is means you have to keep taking off your trim ring.

 

BUMMER

It fits just fine with my Z110BT. I guess it all depends on you dash kit.

So does this mean it doesn't sit flush? Do you think it could pass for a stock radio on a z110??

 

If you could take a picture of it on your system with the trim ring that would be GREAT!

I will throw one up later today.

Here you go, several from the outside of the car perspective.

WOW....Thanks for the pics! I have a Chevy Silverado and I don't know if it will work around my dash bezel....but this one looks pretty good so I am gonna give it a try. Still kinda skeptical of ordering something from an ebay seller in Hong Kong though

mine arrived quick so not to worry about ordering.

Posted Aug 25, 2009 · 18:34 UTC#38

Yea mine showed up fairly quickly as well, about as quick if I ordered something from across the country. I sympathize with you about ordering anything from China. I personally cant stand the idea of giving the Chinese any of my money. It is sad to say though that sometimes it is necessary. Also most non branded items for sale on ebay are made in and shipped directly from China. A lot of name brand items sold on ebay are also counterfeited in China as well.

yeah i guess your right it all depends on the dash kit cause the dash kit i installed the first time, the faceplate didnt fit, the second one i installed fit right in the Avic 910bt. heres a pic

Well I just ordered one, a lot easier than taking my factory deck's face off, I want to be able to put it back if I ever need to. I did this with my 88 Mustang about 15 years ago.

 

I think I will try to find a FORD sticker to put on it or template so I can paint FORD and/or Shaker 500 on it so it is a bit more convincing.

PSSST.......SHHHHHHHHHH !!!! OOPS, TOO LATE !!

Being aware there are professional thieves out there, don'tcha think they're aware of these? Especially now that you've posted all the pics.....

 

Just asking...... (and just kiddin as well)

 

I noticed that the Civic owner had one. Question for ya - did you look into modifying the original radio bezel (with all the buttons and crap) and use that? I have a civic and was thinking of that. I'm gonna check that out tomorrow. If that's out, perhaps I'll join the crowd, but....I think I'll have it delivered to my neighbors house so the don't have my addy (to find my new toy easily).....

This solution allowed me to avoid such a modification. As far as thieves knowing whats up? This is better then nothing at all. This is not the only deterrent I have on this car.
