For the dash piece - you can get a Metra unit off Ebay. Stinger makes one. there are a couple out there. Everyone knocks the Metra ones as they have a tendency to warp. I had my Metra resprayed and clear coated and its holding shape better then the stock one.

@ tokmaster - weren't you making your own pieces for modding your car? Most professional bolt-on bits throw up the CEL light and need the car professionally retuned for the new mod (not using factory flash) also didn't you run NOS in yours aswell??

IF YOU ABUSE THE CAR IT WILL BRAKE.

scosche dash kit all the way this is the kit i bought, fitment and everything was perfect. got mine in 7 days from this guy. so shipping aint too bad

although this item has ended, it wouldnt hurt to email the guy to see if he has any more of these avaliable. to be honast, i think i bought the last one he had xD. But yeah email him and see if he has any more in stock. but if not, their pretty easy to find over the net

if he doesnt have any more of them, search model number in google. their on alot of other reliable sites such as sonixelectronics. the model number is MI3019B

Hope that helps you

yep. if he doesnt have it, check out sonicelectronix. pretty comparable in prices. Just make sure you stay away from metra, they melt and warp =\.
