I am installing a new head unit in my j and was wondering which din pocket do I need to fit under the stero. Where is a good place to buy? part number?

Thanks

DIN is DIN. That Crutchfield piece is crap- it's flimsy, and takes up about a quarter of the volume with trim to make it universal. Ask a Nissan dealer what they have; check eBay. There are a few kinds of filler available, some with doors, some 2-part with a cup holder and drawer (they tend to go for a lot because the racey boys get them for their Skylines), and some (Mitsubishi for one) have ones with a nice door on the front.The cup holder type are nice in the J, if only to keep me from wondering what geek thought that missle-silo door over the top (and, mostly in the way) of the factory thimble holders was a good idea. Ah, luxury. :Toyotas tend to have an odd mounting spacing that won't necessarily line up with the J30's mountings, but they're the only oddball setup I've run across. So far.
