Metra Kit / Alpine wont mount flush..HELP
Hey all, I'm mounting my alpine head unit in the metra kit for the 02 tls. It fits in ok and the head unit metal backet locks in. the only problem is that it sits about 1/4inch too deep in the metra kit. it's way below being flush with the front. If I try and shim it out so it doesn't sit so deep the metal spring tabs no longer will be able to hold it in. I read another post where someone else was complaining of the same thing but he never got an answer, so I'm hoping someone here will have a solution since I assume most of you are using alpine replacement head units. Help.
thanks,
Chris
