For you guys with double dins

i got the scosche double din dash kit, and was wondering if to mount the head unit are you guys using the plastic mounts or re-using the stock metal ones. i can post pics to clarify the brackets if needed

 

haha ewh. would it rattle less than the plastic ones as well?

 

bump

 

is it a bad rattle?

 

I used the factory metal brackets with my Pioneer Avic-X920BT. It is a good solid mount. The only thing about using these is the radio is pushed out more at the bottom than if you use the plastic mount, but it doesn't bother me at all.

 

i would thaink that might look cleaner?

 

what about something like this?

 

i'll try it and do a write up and let you know

 

May want to check out this thread I did on this exact topic. It will probably answer a lot of your questions or at least give you some ideas.

I fucking hate this forum...why is it whenever I try and post a link from TW it just goes to the forum index? HAX!

 

use the factory metal ones

 

haha alright i was wondering what i was supposed to look for

 

sounds good speakers come today and hopefully the rings come today or tomorrow!

 

Link should be fixed now.

And it wont really matter which brackets you use if you use them correctly. The metal ones are better for stability but then you also have to think about how much shock/vibration is being transmitted through the rigid metal. I used the plastic ones and added some pads for support and isolation.

 

i thought it was tighter than a 12 year old on a first date????

 

thanks i will try the silicone, do you know what kind you used?
