Default Universal blanking plate to cover up din hole on double din headunit wont fit?

Bought a 190mm * 60mm din blanking plate for my 2002 STI so i can fit my alpine head unit along with my newly installed avcr, but wont fit as too big.

Looks like its more like 55mm to fit.

Anyone know where to get one to fit so can mount my boost controller?

how about putting the boost controller in a forester pocket ?

These are available from your local dealership,they are a single din fitment cd type draw with a flap on the front,also they match the impreza dash perfectly

I think they retail about £15 all in

yeah seen one today on internet.

Is it a flush flap or is there a ridge on it as boost controller will sit at an angle?

£15 wont break the bank and looks well smart compared to the ****ty black covers and pockets i have seen.

Had to drill holes in the Forester Pocket to fit my 05 STI, then binned it as I was sure it was a slightly different colour!!!!!
