Wanted to see if anyones running a double din in there fox. I wanted to get one and have navigation on it, but not sure if it will look right. It just seems kind of low and not in a readily available spot. Afraid of missing 3rd and punching it. Also seems like the shifter may be in the way. Anyway, if you can, please post a picture or two so I can see how they look. Thanks guys!

I found a few pictures online. It looks pretty good. Sitting in my car, I can see where it would be kinda blocked by the shifter when in 1st or 3rd. I think I may go ahead and buy one and see what happens. I just think it would be nice to have navigation without a gps screen on your windshield.

I have a double din in my car but no good pictures, sorry.
I did run into a couple issues trying to get it in there. The unit i'm running was resting on the transmission tunnel and caused it to sit to high for the opening in the console. I had to beat the tunnel a tad to get it to sit right. While the back of the unit will sit right, you will need a figure a way to elevate the front of the unit so it sits in the hole of the console. I had to fab up some 'legs' to elevate it to the right height.
I drive an automatic, but even in the parking gear, my unit opens and just barely clears.
With a little modification you can get it done. Good luck.

I drive my car everywhere and get lost a lot, so it would be good to have. Plus I think navi's kinda cool.
