Default Installed a radio

Took out the SCs stock radio the other day and put in a kenwood mp3 cd player, now what my problem is is that i have a huge gap between where my new radio is and the bottom portion (the stock radio is huge!!) anyone know a company that makes a plastic piece that i can put in to make it fill up that gap?

u can just cut out a piece of ABS plastic or add something in the space. like an external EQ and then fill the .5 din with a pocket or something. MANY options out there to fill in the space. ME, im trying to find a lcd screen that will fit in that space. and put a dvd -player in the glove or something.

I think there's lots of questions regarding the radio kits for the SC's, you might want to search for it.
You could also use 1/4" MDF and and paint it to match. Here's mine, my car isn't an SC but you get the idea...

I found a company that does the aftermarket wood kits. They said they can make a wood or s/steel cover if you send them the template.... PM me and I will get that info to you
