Clarion CX609A Double Din Install - bracket?
Posted: Sun Nov 21, 2010 9:42 pm
Hi,
Have purchased a Clarion CX609A Double Din unit to replace the stock unit in my 1991 NA6.
Problem I have is that the metal cage/brackets that the stock Panasonic is connected to wont screw to the new unit (screws holes in wrong place).
I need a suitable double Din bracket for the Clarion. I had bought a Metra kit that appeared to be the correct one but turns out it's for single din - I could grind off the offending plastic bits from the brackets they provide but would prefer to get some brackets that will "just work".
Has anyone done a double Din install? Can you provide part numbers/suppliers/suggestions for achieving a clean install?
I have a double Din tombstone with the required insert - the Clarion fits perfectly in the front hole - just need the correct brackets to attach the unit to the internal frame.
Any and all help/advice is appreciated.
