Id like to add that if you're putting a double din in a 07-08 you do not need a dash kit. It will mount to the stock brackets.

Hi....does a 7" dvd dash would fit in the stock brackets? So i would just have to remove the radio (where all the bottoms and the volumen controller are) and then put it in there or i need a dash kit for the 7" one?

This thread is for the 07-08, so I'm guessing one of those years.

I have two reasons why I wouldn't want a job there.

1) now a days it's so easy to get a license to work there that the job demand is way too high installing audio for them, me being a student they would much rather hire someone who can work full time and not part time just like me so it's usually two workers there from open to close every day of the week so me landing a job there would be impossible on my schedule.

and

2)their rep isn't all that great

Whew, I almost bought one of these for my new double din unit.

**Hmax** · 09-02-2012, 09:01 AM

^^^^ yup no dash kit needed

Yannkil · 09-22-2012, 09:42 PM

So if you dont need a dash kit then it means all the 7" dvd dash have the same measure...7 " lenght and 4 " height right?
