Does anyone know where I can find a double din dash kit for a '08 TL?

I'm trying to hook up my aftermarket deck pioneer avh p4200 double din 7 inch screen into my 08 tl, but I can't find a dash kit for my car. Do you guys know where I can find one, does anyone sell them on this site or make them, and also if I wanted to custom make one what kind of material should I use and where can I find them, and can you show examples like pictures.

There aren't any dash kits for the TL. You would need to have something custom built. Most people will use abs plastic or modify a dash kit that is for another vehicle. You also have to deal with the 1/2 circles in the aluminum trim pieces. It can be done, but takes a little bit of work and time. BTW, it has to go where the radio is currently, they area where the radio/hvac display is located is not nearly deep enough.

Yeah trying to get this done but cant find anyone that'll do this custom work close by Im gonna go a different route and let go of my Pioneer AVH 4300 . I'll trade this for an MS-8 . That seems to be the easiest setup right now . ^ Thats what I was told too . The radio/hvac display was not deep enough and had to be done where the stock radio goes . It looks much cleaner wt screen above

you will have to do a custom setup for a faceplate/kit.
