    So, as I posted here a few months ago, I broke my screen on my 16 4Runner. I've exhausted all my options and came to the conclusion why fix something that I want to replace anyway. So when I went the car stereo shop, they set me up with what I wanted, up until they took a look at my trail edition and said " they only make the dash kit in silver, yours is black". What!?!? They called two of the big makers and they were told that they had no idea they came in black, now that they know, they will start producing them but it's a year out. Well shit. That does me no good. Auto body shop wants 100 bucks to paint a $50 part. Anyone happen to know of a maker that makes double din dash kits in black?

    Just a thought...have you considered taking the face plate to a wrap shop? You know, the places that do vehicle graphics. I'm sure they could wrap it in vinyl for about $20. I bet you could even get a carbon fiber look instead of just plain black.

    Yea many companies dont know that, not many were black in the trails. I got lucky with the black. You should see more options sooner tho, more trd off roads come in black and trd pros all come in black. Someone has to have one.
