Carson only place to get JDM double-din dash kit?
I ordered the Toyota Japan dash kit from Carson a week or so ago, got an email yesterday saying it's backordered, ETA 4-6 weeks. 
I'll gladly wait a month to get the Toyota part rather than order something inferior but if there's another place to check for the OEM part it would make things easier for me to get it sooner. I tried googling one of the part numbers and didn't come up with anything productive.
If anyone knows of someone else who carries this and may have it in stock I'd appreciate it.

Conroegs, there's pics if you search for them, I came across some while I was looking for an alternate vendor before I put up this thread.
I guess I'm waiting for it to come in through Carson, it'd drive me nuts to look at a piece that didn't match considering it's right next to the climate controls. I won't be driving the car for another month or so but it would've been nice to get the HU in now as the speakers are going in so I could tweak and tune everything.

one other kit you might want to look into; lets throw it back to 2005 (ha!):

and here's some ooooold pics from the previous gs:
BKLXSK1315 Dash Kit by: BEST KITS
the kit fit very well and as you can see came with the trim ring. it is black and wont match your dash plastics perfectly but neither will the OEM dask kit you ordered. you can easily paint the piece to match your stuff if you'd like, i ended up doing that after those pics were taken and it came out fine...sorry but i dont remember what kind/color of paint i used, it was 5 years ago and that car's long gone.
