    Default fitting an in dash dvd

    hi there
    i want to install a 7" dvd/cd player instead of the standard unit. just not sure waht to do with the space that will be left below the new unit. beacuse the standard 1 is double the size.
    just wondering if any body has installe one and any ideas on what to do with the hole.
    any ideas would be great
    cheers

    either get the spacer which is like a console bit or go for the non fold out ones that take up that hole space.

    The surrounds are gay. The black plastic is a different colour and texture to the surroundings of the stereo area and it looks right out of place. Fill the whole gap.
