Default Head unit dash kits

Are there any other dash kits besides this one?



Iv searched far and wide and cant come up with any other options..

I hate that recessed look, i want something that pops out and looks more custom and clean.

I was thinking of making my own but im finding it hard to think of what materials ill need.

Thanks for any help!

Mine's different. I don't have pics but it's just a flat panel with the radio centered in it. No accessory slot underneath. I don't know what brand/model it is though

If it helps, I bought the HU from Crutchfield and they included the dash kit. Perhaps you can buy it from them?

well you have the double din dash opening which most likely means all dash kits are going to have some sort of slot like that.

I figured the slot would come in handy for storing your Ipod or cellphone but yeah, I think most dash kits look kinda cheap. mine in my truck sticks out like a inch.
