I am not sure if that would fit. It depends on if the door width is less than 174mm.

Yes, you need a wiring harness adapter:

Scott,

Can you give me two pictures of the bracket standing on its end as if it was in its mounted position. I would like one of both the inside, and outside of the bracket. It would be my intent to combine bracket photos, with one of the side of the HU so that I may draw arrows between the two to indicate re-alignment positioning.

Thanks.

I had to do this too, in my case I took a ball peen hammer and bashed down the alignment bumps, and then I slotted out the holes so that I could slide my HU further back so that it is almost flush with the new trim - slightly proud. It looks much better this way. It did take some back and forth to get it exactly how I wanted it, but damn it looks sweet.

[WeeYari]

This pic should work for now.

It may have been blind luck that I was able to achieve the exact amount of movement required for my JVC HU.

So the way you mounted it, the HU is attached to each bracket with only one screw?

No, 2 screws in each bracket.

Received it two days ago but doesn't work with my two single din setup. The radio & the bottom cover pocket are 182mm. I could cut the plastic to get the radio to open but as in the picture, the bottom cover is wider so that wouldn't open. So now I may have to get rid off it, if i can't think of anything after the weekend its gone. I wanted one so badly and i can't use it now. Here a pic of my setup so if anyone else has the same the 180mm radio trim wouldn't work.

How about pushing the headunit in deeper, per WeeYari's instructions above? The HU should work that way. The question is if the door on the pocket will fit within the trim.

Thanks guys. I'll give this a try when I get the new trim piece.

Seems like none of the Pioner / Pioneer Premier head units fit properly in this double din trim piece. I wish Pioneer would create proper double / single din width head units.

[MGargano]

It will fit if you trim the double DIN trim accordingly. I have the Pioneer AVH-P4000DVD which has the same weird face trim piece as yours and I made it work perfectly after a few trips back and forth to the garage to use the dremel tool.

[IsLNdbOi]

Trimmed mine as well. A little bit at a time. Had to trim so much to get my P8000BT to fit that by the time it was trimmed enough, you could see the jagged edges I "trimmed" using my dremel. I posted a picture earlier in this thread.
