    Went back through my Amazon, it was a scosche, idk if the dashes changed a bit between 05 and 15 but it was a bad fit, where as the reveiws were praising it.

    I bought a single din JVC from Crutchfield a couple months ago. With wiring harness, metra install kit, and steering wheel adapter, it was about $150. I could have bought a less expensive radio, but this was one of the best upgrades I've done to my 08.

    This site looks nice. I got my dash kit free from Crutchfield when I got my radio. I saw this one on the site you have linked and wondering why this won't fit a 2006, looks indenical to mine

    Well it says 08 through 11, which makes me think 05 to 07 08 to 11 and 12 to 15 are all diferrent dash angles. Even if they look similar

    this is true the 05-11 had the same dash. 12-15 look the same but the angles are a smudge different

    I did come across this, and a part of me wants to change it to black. Funny, it says 2005-2011..

    black looks so much better then the grey. and the smooth one is a lot nicer than the ugly pimpled one

    Thanks for the input. My only issue with the black is my A/C and heat controls are the textured silver.
