Searched for a bit and couldn't find the quick answer I was looking for:
I've got my entire center console taken out and a new Acura head unit all wired into my '95 L Sedan but it seems the the DIN clips have NO PRAYER of clearing the metal 2DIN slot the stock head came out of. My Alpine is a 1 DIN unit in a mounting bracket, all purchased from crutchfield (mounting bracket is the universal thing they claim works with the car)
Anyone have any idea how the hell to get the silly thing in there so it'll fit behind the center console panel?
It appears that I could file off the clips and the center console would hold the unit in place but I can't be sure and I don't want to try it.
Anyone whose done this and knows what's up, I'd LOVE a quick response! Thanks much!
And Merry Christmas to all!
