Aftermarket Double Din Security?

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

So I'm looking to replace my standard radio with an aftermarket, particularly one that has no removable faceplate. But something is holding me back. The security issue. Double dins without removable face parts are an invitation to thieves.

I am wondering if the oem radio Lex IS200 ('03) can be removed from the facsia so that it can be placed over the aftermarket one as a dummy.

Other than spending out more another stereo, updating security alarm system/s or buying the dummy fascia on eBay, which is obviously known to the car stereo thief what can I do to secure my stereo :question:

Thanks,

Leon
