Title: Where to buy double din fascia plates?
Post by: HRVMR2 on October 11, 2017, 17:38
Looked on eBay and did a Google but seemed to only conjur up single din fascias with the compartment. Any help appreciated even if we are sourcing out of UK, but it shouldn't be that hard!!

I'm looking for just those sides on their own. Any ideas? I'll buy the whole lot if need be (mine looks ugly from the side)

Thinking about this I might have some sides in the garage.  Message me to remind me later if you still need some

If you scroll down the Amazon page there's another option to buy at £4.00 delivered, slow boat from China probably but cheap as chips.

I never looked at the price - pretty sure I answered the question though, just the sides,  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Yeah, it doesn't always make sense does it, less is more and all that jazz   s:roll: :roll: s:roll:

The only bit I'm curious about is what gap you actually want to cover with them? I'm PFL and facia plate missing but these particular trims won't make any difference to mine and I'm double din.
If you look at the customer photos on the advert (celica install I think) it shows how they fit.
