If you wanted a no pocket single din dash adapter, you could have gone with this: Metra 99-2001

How is that piece held in? I see no mounting tabs or marks for anything kind of screws holes.

and next time.. if you redo this piece.. use a finer tooth blade and cut it slow and straighter.

I see you painted it with royal blue from duplicolor. heheheh

I can appreacite the idea behind it, but there is a reason why no one else has done that lol.

If you really want to do something custom, do some fiberglass work and make the trim and the radio dash kit look like all one piece. It would look awesome if done right.

Good try, but I think a $9.99 dash kit would have been a better investment. :)

JLw7123 11-30-2009 02:38 PM

ya they sell them at best buy and walmart.
