Urban Runner Radio Trim Ring Found!

the cable it's self is long enough to reach there but it looks like the antenna from the factory fits into there when using a HD module? IS this correct? I still have yet to receive my wiring harness so I'm not sure if it lengthens the antenna cords at all.

Thanks
Judd

you know what, you're right. The xm module is a bit different.

But...

I installed the HD module on my wife's avn726e and it came with a cable that lets you extend the antenna cable so that you can attach it to the hd module.

I think you'll be alright. :bigok:


Edit: Just looked up the unit. Yup, comes with an extension.

Thanks for posting that pic. I should check again, but I don;t think I got the antenna extension part with the HD module. Anyhow after talking to a friend who installs for a living I might sell my HD module and just get Sirius. He says there's a lot of bs with the signal coming in and out and it annoys most of their customers to the point where they ask for it to be uninstalled. So perhaps I am better off selling it.;

Awww man that sucks. I guess it mostly depends on where you live. We live in the Los Angeles area, so we get a good amount of extra stations. Check out HDradio.com to see whats available in your area.
 
Just bought one for my new Eclipse nav unit. Super expensive but looks awesome! Had it in 5 days after order. Looks factory unlike the other cheap dash kits.
 
my eclipse kit look like sh!t compared to that kit!! i have the older Eclipse 6620 heres a pic

I wonder if that kit could work for a limited? I have the JBL synthesis kit that came with the runner.
When the guys installed my eclipse unit they said there was no way they could push the headunit back any further..
 
After trying every kit out there I finally ordered this trim ring. Can't believe they charge $100 for a .40 cent piece of plastic.....but it was worth it, looks great.
The before pics with side pieces, hated how the Kenwood stuck out:

Mako,

That looks awesome. Did you modify the radio mounting bracket? It looks like it is at a little angle in the second pic. Looks good

alot of the newer HU's have a tilt feature for the screen. You adjust what angle you want it and it remembers. Only thing with my Z120 is it only tilts to desired angle when the HU's is on.
 
Trim for Kenwood DNX9960

WOW!
Great Find, thank you for posting this info.
and thanks to you guys who tried it out and posted pictures too!
I looked up the radio dimensions you all have and confirmed it would work with the Kenwood DNX9960-
I had the system installed in my Sister-In-Laws 4Runner back in January and was so disappointed when we got it back from the installer.

these are some pics of the Kenwood DNX9960 in a 2006 4Runner - before and after.

I would like to also say thanks to whoever found this. I hated paying $90+ for a piece of plastic but it is well worth it. It worked perfectly with my Alpine IVA-W505.
 
Bump. Debating trying this out on my limited. Don't want to spend $90 to find out it doesn't fit the limited with nav correctly. Can anyone confirm it fits?
 
That's right, I've got a Kenwood unit now. The factory JBL Nav unit was wider and filled up the space where the trim ring is now.
 
Help Please
