Its a popular kit company here in VA. The name of the company that make them are called American International Car Installation Kits and Accessories. The kit give your car the factory look.

The reason why I am selling this kit is because 5 months ago I bought the same kit for my car when i had the pioneer avic n1 installed. I purchased the avic d 1, called the local auto shop and they told me they had a double din kit. (thinking i needed a new kit i bought it. My old kit has the cup holder. All I have to do is remove the cup holder and the kit turn into a double din kit) So now I have two kits. I can return it back to the store but they will only give me a store credit. Yeah I got sucker on that one!

Model # of the kit: LXS-K1315

that's not the real oem one
will not match your AC/heater control unit or ash tray.

The Carson/Toyota OEM one is a much preferred kit - it has METAL side brackets and is VERY sturdy - made exactly for the car and perfectly matches the paint.
The American International is a decent kit, but not in the same league. It is all plastic. Not a perfect match to the paint.
