Do you have to have double din? You can just get a dash kit and use a single din, greatly improving the chances of finding a deck you like. The kits usually run about $17 and they'll mount just like the factory radio. Plus, you'll get a pocket beneath the radio to put crap in...

The Cardomain.com shop has free dash kits for single din head units; well atleast for mine, I got a free one with all the wiring, when I purchased a headunit from them... You might want to take a look at it maybe you'll find something you like there...plus the head units are way below the price of major retailers.

Good find! I guess if it fits, then do it up... I don't, however, like the way it sits in the dash like that... I don't like seeing the side of the deck.

I guess it'll be interesting to see how it actually mounts in there (considering the factory decks are usually held in by spring clips)...
