  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I have a 2009 Genesis V6
Hey so I've had my car for a few years, it was my mom's old one and im turning 20 soon, so the old features aren't really exciting to me anymore. I think im going to attempt to remove the disc area and maybe revamp the whole radio and try putting in those touch screen radios?
I was just wondering if anyone has done this or has any knowledge on it? I've seen the basic videos on YouTube to help take everything off but I feel like the whole dash is ugly with all that since I don't use any of it. Anything would be appreciated!
 
Any time you get into removing stock radios and replacing it with after market stuff, you're going to run into issues... it's a lot more complicated these days. In older cars it was not hard at all - I'm an old fart, and in my 70's and 80's cars, you just removed the old stock radio and slipped in a new Pioneer, Clarion, or Jensen radio, hooked up the power, antenna, and speakers, and you're done.

You should go to a car stereo performance shop and see what they think. You might not like the options, but it is what it is. Good luck.
