By searching some forums I came across someone with the same problem. Didn't say what they did to fix it. 02.gif

Again by searching I hear that the single oem din looks better. Will it fit in a 99 fx tib if so thats what Im leaning on. I called the dealership and they couldn't find the part. So I looked on the DIY section to find the part number and being a noob to cars wasn't sure how to read it. Is the single din only in the older 1.8 tibs? If anyone could help me find the part number or has one that there willing to sell, I would be greatful.

 

Send a pm to FaithofDragon. He can get you the single din console wink1.gif

 

where is the trim to your headunit? you should have gotten a little rectangular peice with the pioneer box.

 

^^ what he said, if you can't locate it, go to a local sterio shop to get one. Also, you could use a no-name brand one and get someone with a bit of skill to mold it in.

you're definately missing the trim ring guy.

 

I have the trim but It doesn't fit with the stock dash. Had to take it off to install

 

I hate blanking plates with a passion. Get a single din dash replacement, it'll look soooo much better.

 

you sure it doesn't fight? mine does, well i have the pioneer deh p6600 but all in all its the same thing.

 

yep Im sure. the unit dosn't come out to fit. far enought to fit I would have to cut the dash to get it on.

could you post some pic's so I can see what you did

 

k, dude, you're probly going to need to do some custom work... You can take out the face and hire someone to do it, or you can use these pix for a reference.



cut and then fit the ring, then glue it in place



use some bondoglass to secure it in place



fill in the gaps with bondoglass, sand it down



use some spotting putty



sand down and paint as needed.

 

that does look like ass. just go to the yard and pull a single DIN
