. But I thought about putting mine in the glove box but it wasent enough room then I thought about under the seats but 2 problems you cant adjust the height too much and dont want and heating issues. So I decided to put it in the middle space in the back seat where the trap door is and run the wires under the rear seat. The PC case I have (voom case) fits perfectly in the slot. I've actually got all the wires run I just need to hide them. I'll be sure to take some pics and post it in a separate thread. If you need any help or info let me know. -Smitty

I went to 4 different car audio places and none of their suppliers had it in stock. I called up Scosche and the referred me to Walmart and have them special order it. Went to 2 different Walmarts and both said they don't do special orders for Scosche. In the end, I ordered it straight from Scosche for $19.95 + $8 shipping. This is back in early March when it first came out though. I would assume suppliers should have it by now.

No I dont have a worklog. I really need to start taking more pictures lol . But I thought about putting mine in the glove box but it wasent enough room then I thought about under the seats but 2 problems you cant adjust the height too much and dont want and heating issues.

To get back on topic, here's some more info on the dash kit:
- It replaces the metal bracket for your head unit with a rather flimsy plastic one, but it does the job.
- It can accommodate both single or double din installs. If you want to go with the single-din option, it has an opening for the HU and a pocket that you can probably put above or below.
I would recommend this kit over the Metra one. I think the texture and color match is better. It's $19.99 and gives you the option to go single or double din.
