will it fit?

[raZel]

Hey guys ,
Just a really quick question.
I was wondering if you could tell me if this head unit will fit into my VY II Calais. http://www.sony.com.au/product/xav-w1
Im fairly sure thats it will fit height and width, but does anyone know how i am going to go for depth?


Cheers

I'm sure it will.. I think the easiest bet would be to pop your radio out (not hard at all) and have a look/measure

It will fit, but you will need a double DIN facia kit for it. Like the one below from DNA:

DNA Designer Audio: whf104G Double Din VY-VZ Fascia Kit - Car Audio & Accessories

Do you happen to know where i can buy one of the kits? Are they available in most Jb hi-fi's and Autobarn's or will i need to get one from online??

thanks alot for your help

You may be able to get them from JB or Autobarn.....if not then a specialist car audio retailer should have them or be able get them easily enough.

not hijacking this thread but where the hell do you get these for a 1999 VT, everything in VY-VZ

you really odn't need one for a VT-VX...if going single din then just a simple peice of black plastic at the bottom usually works well. Ig going single din then you just need to purchase a pocket from somewhere. Aerpro make on that works well.... AP9014 I tihnk.

In response to pulling the deck out of the VY and measuring it....that won't work! If you did that and measured it...it really wouldn't fit. When doing any deck in a vy the whole front fascia needs to be removed so you can pull out the cage that the factory radio mounts into...then it will fit!

Still not hijacking but i'm going to put a Clarion CX609 double din it it.

Ta Bezz, man, that avatar scares my little kids. LOL

hey everyone
about the facias
i work at jb hifi and u can get pretty much any facia there
for the VT-VX u need a simple pocket to fill the space if u get a single din unit
for a double din unit u dont need one
with the vy and vz u can get a single din facia kit and a double din facia kit
they are only about 19 bucks each
they are from aepro and stinger do them too
throw me any questions about what to buy and where from


cheers

[djs7cc]

and yes razel it wil fit

[Tasmaniak]

there is actually adouble din fascia kit but it really not needed

[06vzcalais]

are the stinger arepro facias stronger than the DNA kits ive been thru 4 facias from dna the clip lugs break off easily (im always changing head units, got one for SPL and one for cruising)

[227shanno]

the din pocket is really handy btw....

ive broken a clip on my aeropro one so i'm guessing they're all as dodge as eachother

[Tasmaniak]

I do tend to prefer the one from Aerpro over DNA.....but I tend to buy from Nicole at DNA...lovely lass she is!

[djs7cc]

i have an aerpro one and it fits really nicely
i have an alpine double din and its pretty neat
hasnt broken yet
loll
