i was told that the width of the stock unit is odd compared to aftermarket head units..is this true? if so what do i need to do to get a after market unit of average size to fit properly?

 

well if you break the little plastic surround thingy then you will have extra room around it and just have a professional install the head unit but watch them very carefully, they should have all of the covers and such.

 

no, its not weird my dad was the manager of the roadshop the car audio portion of circuit city for 12 years hehe and he did my install and didnt mention it being weird. its just a normal single din head unit =D

 

width isnt a problem unless you had the little amp thing like the verts had, then its a bit wider

 

its only single din if you leave the eq or the tape deck or something.

 

depending on the sound system your car came with it may be single din or double din.. i installed one on the vert a while back.. nothing odd about it.. i got rid of it later though cuz the way the radio didnt seem to fit in with the rest of the dash bothered the hell out of me..

 

well they sell double din head units with some cool **** for the extra room it takes up , mine is single din =D

 

i got that metal thing and its great. its f/s too if you wanan buyi t. 2 pods.

 

i know its double din.. i just didnt know if it was too wide or something odd like that.. but thanks for your help guys... dramon.. what are you talkin bout?

 

i bought my sony xplod head unit and it fit right in
