Default Re: Forrester Din pocket install - pics and instructions

I am out of country right now, but I have ordered my din pocket and my new headunit and Im anxious to get home and get this installed.

One question, I have a dremel and was wondering how big of a bit you need to make your holes? The dremel comes with a couple smaller sized bits, i cant imagine that you need too big of a bit. Thanks!

I just used a regular drill bit to put a hole in the back corner of the pocket, for me to put an ipod cable thru it. If that is what you are intending, you really don't need a huge hole. But that is up to you. Have fun and enjoy.

The hole for the ipod cable depends on how you are connecting it. I used a standard ipod charging cable, so the hole was a little bigger. A headphone jack would be smaller. The hole on the side for the DIN pocket are very small. Just make the hole slightly smaller than whatever size screw you have so that it will grab. If you have access to a drill, I recommend using it. If the dremel is all you have, use the thinnest bit possible.
