Problem mounting gauges in DIN
 
1 Attachment(s)
I have a 1990.

I pulled my trim around the radio and the radio itself out. By the looks of it, it seems like I have some kind of universal headunit install kit. There is no prevision to mount the 3 gauge din panel in the empty slot. It's all one peice.

Where can I find the appropriate part to install the gauge panel?

I just moved my radio to the bottom DIN and mounted a 3 din gauge pod over top of it....

It didn't clip in as easily as I would have hoped, but I bent the piece accordingly and made it work.

I'll be more clear. I can't move the radio unless I flip the whole thing upsidedown. and I can't attache the 3 gauge din anywhere. It's one solid 2din piece.

Are you trying to do this????

you can unscrew the bar that seperates the two DINs move your radio to the lower one then insert the Gauge holder into the upper one... I had to make a U into one of the clips in the side for it to hold...also need to trim the length of the guage holder about 2mm for it to fit nicely....

Yes, but I'll reiterate. I am trying to figure out if I am missing the proper piece to mount two seprate DINs in the large hole. It looks like one of those universal radio install kits. Sicne a shit load of shims were used to get it to work, I assume it's not OEM. Anyone have a picture of it disassembled so I can compare?

definately not OEM.... its basically one big open whole with a bar screwed in between to seperate the DINs.
