Not really. They're all the same DIN size.

Anyways i put all the stock parts togather and tried to push the stock headunit back and it didnt bloody sit right! something preventing from sitting all the way back in! its got dark and i had to stop bcoz i felt sorry for the missz and kids wanted to have their dinner!

Possibly pulled the harness through when removing and now it is sitting behind it and getting squashed.

Pretty sure you need to remove the plastic (metal?) cradle first. Then it all fits nice.

Get the metal box back in. Make sure the ISO plugs are seated into the back of the box correctly.

Maybe the headunit is faulty now.
