Lightbulb who says no aftermarket dash kit ???

Well after being on here for a while and asking seems like there is no available dash kit for our 93-97 gs300's that will allow us to easily mount an aftermarket 1 din unit? BUT!!! Take a look here, made by metra, but steep in price... Interesting.....

DASH KIT

yeah they finally came out with it...they're only 10 years late... I already made a custom one.I may by this if I can get it for a good price...I can't justify $45 for a plastic kit that I don't need...

sweet good idea i didn't think of that Hopefully if the price goes down a substancial amount people will buy these cause they are a perfect fit and have the little pocket which would otherwise be useless space. Let us know what you find out....

Hey all, I have one for sale in the classifieds, for $40 shipped including insurance. I ship the same day too. If you manage a group buy I definately don't think he will do $30 shipped, I am reasonably sure he will do $30 plus shipping. Anyway, I have one ready to go today. If anyone is interested let me know.


If you buy it from me for $40, it will be shipped today, or the day I am paid. I sold an SC400 insert to a guy on Friday, be paid me at 11:00 am and it was shipped, insured, with tracking number, by noon. So, he may even have it today.

We shall see and then i'll get back to you on that, $40 for plastic is expensive either way
