Re: Looking for Kenwood fit.

Subject: Re: Looking for Kenwood fit.

I would say, logically, your right Durango_Boy. The problem is ISO-7736, which as I understand it is the standards for car audio DIN sizes, say single DIN 180mm W x 50mm H and double DIN 180mm W x 100mm H (no depth specified) which is all well and good until I read the spec's on Kenwood's site, which are 182 W x 112 H, so puff goes 'standards'!

I've also had a look a pics (trying to resolve this) of various makes/models of HU's and some have a smaller screen frame than the body dimensions, some a larger frame and others look to be the same size as the body. Another common option is an extra escutcheon around the frame (Kenwood for one) which, I guess, is an arbitary size according the the manufacturer.

I do agree and think that the worst case scenario could be a bit of 'encouragement' to fit, but with the price of some of these units I don't think it's too much for the manufacturers to state complete fitting size/specs.

End of the day I suppose I'll have to bite the bullet for a try & see!
