Hey all. I have fitted my new headunit using the provided headunit cage and then went to try and fit the surround that I bought as an adapter from eBay. I can't get it to clip on anywhere. In fact I see no clips on the surround and have no idea how I am supposed to get it to stay on :S
Also when I fit the surround I can't get the pioneer surround part to fit either so I can see all the cage anyway. Its a total mess haha.
Any suggestions on how to do a neat job of this as it is really getting on my nerves how crap it looks lol.
Thanks, Jack
Back in a minute then haha. Will have to go get them on my phone.
That's about as good as it gets tbh, aftermarket stereos don't fit properly with the surround, always annoyed me as well lol.
The cage is supposed to hold it in but most aftermarket ones don't. I just used double sided tape to stick mine in
Ahh I see. Yeahh my cage fits nice and snug. The actual adapter part from eBay doesn't seem to have anywhere for the cage to even hold it anyway. Its a terrible design haha. And tbf it barely fits correctly or fills up the gapes around the headunit anyway. If I wanted to put the facia on I would have to remove the pioneer surround and show all the front lip of the cage :S its rubbish lol.
the cage goes threw the facia plate . . . . .rookie mistake, i made it once a long time ago . .
Dammit. Ahhhh nuts. I have bent all the little tabs on it now -_- gonna have to try bend them all back out and try again then by the sound of it haha. Will go try it now
Well thats sorted it haha. I can't believe that I forgot thats how you did it. I had to do the same on my old corsa ages ago lol. Brain freeze or what haha. Cheers guys
Yeah I was gonna say, you put the adaptor in the space, then put the cage through the adaptor and then the dash
