Hi,

Does anyone know where you can buy a UK facia for my Jap import STI.

The stereo that was fitted is the Clarion, I have tried to put a UK model stereo in the car but the facia will not close as the UK one is wider. So I guess the only thing I can do is by a uk facia.

Looking forward to your comments......

is it the double din size mate?
if so pop off the centre panel,around the heaters and mount the stereo from behind it without the plastic surround that came with the stereo,and then but a forester din tray for underneath job's a good en

I have taken off the plastic outer frame, it fits in the double head unit holder but even with the plastic outer off I cannot close the facia. Even if I could the front panel of the stereo is too wide to fit through the facia.

Any thoughts would be gratefully received.....
