Aftermarket Stereo - "Modified Fit"

[DCT]

What is that metal brace for?

Yeah I guess you got lucky lol.. My double din was solid metal all the way back and the bracket wouldnt let it go in the last inch.. But yeah the newer model has the true double din cd player and you can avoid this small headache! Thanks BTW!

DCT, it's just a extra dash support I guess

I'm about to do mine tonight. Thanks for the pic! I was just about to post this pic to ask what I needed to cut. Haven't tried to shove it in there yet, so maybe, according to others, I may not need to cut anything. Hope that's the case.

Thanks for everyone's input.

I just sanded down the top of the plastic piece to fit mine in until it was flush with the bottom of the lip. I also had to sand down the corners on either side of the plastic notch (rear radio support) as well. In retrospect though I still dont know if it was necessary for all of it or I jumped the gun when it wouldnt fit the first time.

Glad I could help! I had to pull my bezzel 3 or 4 times and sand it until I could just put a cd into the slot..
