Looks Awesome! I really like the carbon fiber look. 2 questions: What are the exact length x width of the double din's in the pics? Are you in the position to do any custom jobs? (i.e. fiberglass mod to fit tablet, possible relocation of thermostat *****)

Nicely done! I made my own, looks just like that (almost as good as yours , my carbon fiber vinyl skills pale in comparison to yours!)

I still have mine in my garage, leftover from the 2005 I jetissoned in favor of the 2008. I'll give it to anyone that wants it. It probably needs to have the vinyl reapplied, but the cutout is decent for a double DIN in a 05-07

All reputable double DIN are the same in size. Stay away from overseas cheaper non branded units. I have done iPad (full and mini) installs but they are not cheap simply due to all the labor and materials involved. I have 12 hours in a new 2013 Ram piece and it still needs primer, paint and hydrographics.

Carbon fiber vinyls are "calender" vinyls which means they are for only smooth flat surfaces. They also need adhesion promoters and edge sealers or they will peel at the edges and pull back in areas where they are forced to contour to. Thats why you dont see vinyl on these pieces I do for the 05+ Dakotas. On the 2000-2003 we can use CF vinyls but again with promoters and sealers
