since the radio faceplate is unconventional, more than likely you will need to go with a custom piece...and depending on how you mount that double din unit within the void, the faceplate design can vary. mounting the unit on center widthwise, but all the way at the top would require a U-shaped faceplate. mounting on center width- and height-wise will require a perimeter plate. just trace the face of the stock radio and go from there if you want to try first.

but if you want a pro to do it, you can give my buddy a call. he had done a faceplate for my accord when i mounted 2 single din units and has made faceplates for many other kinds of cars...

tai, ben stereo, city of industry, 626/336-3327, northwest corner of gale and stimson.

No need for a custom bracket....you can use the one off the factory headunit. I did several aftermarket TL installs already using the existing cage in the car. All you will need to make is a faceplate.

I do make them. Since you are in california, what I would ask you to do it this...once you have the headunit mounted, make a template out of cardboard and send it to me. Reason being is because I don't know exactly where your headunit it going to sit, know what I mean?
