For some reason when we were doing my 1J swap, we put the ecu where the factory headunit used to be.. this was done because we used the speedo hole swap method in order to not have to lengthen the factory harness, in addition to, the car not having a headunit of any sort when I bought it.
so far it's been great, but now I've bought an aftermarket headunit and want to install it. I'm confident that both will fit into that area, but I'm worried about the headunit causing interference with the ECU's functions.
Am I crazy, or is that a very understandable question? if that ends up being a bad idea, then are there any issues with relocating the headunit to the glovebox? I'd rather lengthen the stereo harness than try to go back and undue tons of wires spliced into the ECU at it's current location.
