Evening fellow members. I want to replace my single din stereo facia with the double din command style facia. I have scoured the planet and cannot find one. They seem to be the first thing to be bought from a breakers!!

Can anyone help me please?

Cheers
 
you can take out the wooden panel and give to a milling workshop to mill out the single din to a double din or order it from your dealer direct.

I don't think they are available any more from the dealer.

To mill it out to double din size means moving the climate control to the area above the ash tray. But what if you have the round dials?
 
obviously you need to give them dimension as these people only know how work from drawings. I did mill out some extra slots holes for my clifford alarm
 
yes i have the round dials . recalling from memory looking from the manual I think the storage compartment or ashtray is below the single din radio slot. so you will loose this slot

You don't have yours anymore?
 
One thing which is often forgotten is the plastic frame in the dashboard behind the wooden panel. This needs to be replaced also.
 
sorry i make a mistake .after looking on my panels, its not possible. you are right . It cannot be done as the wooden panel is not tall enough.
Sorry to mislead you.
When I milled my one |I only milled out the holes for the extra swiches . have tried the russian web site for your model. Dont put your chassic Number otherwise it will not show all the options . So if you manage to get a part No most probaly I will need one my self as well as I am planning to install a Alpine double din sat nav with dab . They have just released it a few weeks ago in europe.

Otherwise I might buy a cheap donor car ( petrol one may be as they are cheaper)
 
I dont thing plastic trim a problem as you can trim it off , I think . Just guessing as I have never done it before.
