Hey guys,

Measured the gap for a new double din unit as mine still has a really ropey single din minidisc player, but it seems a bit small for most of the units out there......anyone else had this problem / found a stereo that will fit???

Thanks

All double DIN head units are the same size size. Single DIN head units are 180 x 50mm and Double DIN ones are 180 x 100mm. The depth can vary but this shouldn't be an issue.

Hi Craig, thanks for the info - will any double din unit be a direct fit then with no fascia adaptor? I've tried to see if there is a fascia available, but I can't seem to find one.....

Thanks again

My 15 hasn't got a cage in it!

There's just two brackets, one either side of the DIN hole...

I might depend on if yours came with a double din unit from factory or not. Mine has the factory double din and only has brackets as well.

I've not looked properly, but mine seem to have a form of locators I'm hoping that when I take out the single din I will be able to use the fixings that this is attached with onto the double din that I've bought.....fingers crossed!

Thanks everyone for your help. Now have a double din unit fitted - and used the locating brackets that were already installed in the car.
