New dash install
Hi all, I’ve a puma 110 and Ive purchased A new centre dash that allows a double din unit. Tried fitting today and need to extend a few wires which is fine, but looks like the bottom of the clock is stopping the top air vent part sitting correctly.

Anyone done this and can give advice as to what to do or tips to help get it in correctly.-

Thanks

Mike

If you have a full depth Double din head unit, I found that you need to use a heat gun to 'squish' the air vents by about 5mm to allow it to seat properly. Not a big job but a pain. Hence the reason most go for the half depth units.
Others had already found this out before I did.

Good luck

You need to cut the bottom edge off the white housing of the clock.
