Here's a pdf of the instructions from out on the Planet (if you like archiving that stuff).

The only editing I did on it was to make the pix bigger.

What the heck is a "DIN"??? I know what a DIN connector is (Deutsches Institut für Normung)...

[Vendetta]

The same DIN that governs the connector standards also governs others related to size and shape. Among them was the standardized size of car audio head units. You'll hear terms like single DIN and double DIN (those are the double height ones). So basically, DIN just means standard head unit size in this case.

WAIT,....hold that thought.....I'm not sure if my cubby represents a double or single DIN?? Anybody know????

I thought when we see the Taurus thing that's half cup holder and half coin holder that was referred to as a double DIN, and since I thought that was the same size height wise as my cubby, it would therefore be called a double??

Come on Mav, this is content..help me out here.....

I'm not sure since the OEM CD changer in mine still works.

I do know that just because there is a standard, it doesn't mean the mfr follows it. I have a 2.5 DIN head unit in my RV. Go figure. The head unit that came in it was specially made for Coachmen by Unisonic.

BTW, the front end on the RV is an E450 so I blame Ford
