Who installed yours? Im looking for a cleaner bezel and it looks like you have the best one i have seen yet. It has the gap at the top so the screen can mount flush and still open. Need more info on that bezel!!!

Looks good, does the screen hit the shift **** when it slides down? I have been looking at getting the IVA-W205 myself to replace my IVA-D310. How do you guys like the W205? How much did you pay for it?

Here's my W205. I've also added an HD tuner, Ipod cable, Zenclosures box, 2 JL audio subs, Alpine monitor and replaced the old V12 amps with 2 PDX amps (1.1000 ,4.150).

Now, If I can get that Blackbird II soon, I'll be satisfied for awhile.
