1. 03-04 Double Din Finisher

Price: $75.95

2. 03-04 Double Din A/C control

In case you choose a single DIN HU you will also need the 'blank'...its like a concave piece you can put your cell phone in or something...

They wont be able to get my unit...they will have to tow it...and find a secluded place to do it becuase my alarm will be going off for a continuous 3 hrs after they try to cut the battery line...

also they'd have to do all that for my headunit...lol cause thats all I'm upgrading... I wont be putting in subs or amp.

I thought you would need the bracket. Maybe I'm wrong. I was thinking about doing the same thing.

you can use the stock/existing bracket IF your aftermarket HU is Double DIN like the stock BOSE!

my friend KIA wrote up the DD converstion install guide on this forum. let me linky you to it...tells you how to install step by step and what parts you'll need for the different setups. if your HU is a double DIN you wont need that blank...but if you use a single DIN you'll want a coin blank/insert to fill in the lower portion of the dash...

one thing to note, according to the article, IF your using a Double DIN HU like the stock BOSE you WONT...WILL NOT need to get a new bracket...HOWEVER, if your aftermarket HU is a SINGLE DIN HU, then you will need to get the bracket for single DIN!!!
