I had the W200 installed in my car and it sticks out like crazy. Yours looks super flush. The place that did the install for me said it couldn't be done... now I know it can.

CarToys told me the same thing. Remember though, if you go too flush, it may not open. What we need is a special dash kit that has a little more space at the top to provide clearance for the face to fold out. Either that, or a flexible kit that allows the top part to bend more freely when the unit opens and closes.

I may order an extra metra kit and experiment with it just to see if it is possible to make the HU completely flush. (its just such a pain in the *** to remove the center dash... the damn AC controls are the devil!)

If you are going to attempt to fix a shady install, dont forget to stop by http://liljerk.morpheus.net/350Z/ for the how-to's.
