Default 2" Car Radio Spacer

I am installing a aftermarket radio that is 3" vertical and the stock radio is 5" I was wondering if anyone on here could help me find a 2" spacer so that it will look good. I have searched very well on the internet for one and I could not find one. The radio is a Sumas Media SM-30BT and there is no install kit for it as I have checked via Google.

Thanks for reading.

Get a single-din Metra stereo kit, it has a pocket that holds CDs, cellphones, etc:

The single DIN should work.

That headunit looks a little bit bigger than a single DIN headunit, but smaller than a double? Maybe it just looks bigger in the pictures?

I think the single-din might be to small of a slot for the radio but I might order it and see...

the metra kit should fit. thats what i have in my ride. its a bit flimsy but does the trick if you put some time into it. its made of kinda thin plastic so be careful not to break it.

I live in Louisville about 20 minutes from downtown. I am just going to get the Sony Xplod CDX-GT55UIW from walmart because it is just simple and there is kits made for it. Plus the one I was going to get it is reviewed to have a slow operating system and also that the touch screen is kind of hard to press. But thank you all for the comments and suggestions
