radio install
Put a new hu in my 89. The pro had the cage installed through the dash bezel I bought a bracket and now the radio sits behind the bezel like it should but a little too far recessed. It looks funny to me and the buttons are hard to press.
Anyway how did everyone else install theirs?

Pre-97 bezels suck for radios. All of mine have sat too far back or too far forward.
Dash kit I had for my 92 wouldn't fit behind the bezel, but the opening is just slightly small enough that it overlaps on all 4 sides and holds the radio in place without a dash kit. Doesn't move and you would never know without taking the bezel off. Only time it sucks is if I'm doorless and have taken the face plate off.

Flipped the scosche bracket around so that it doesn't mount recessed, maybe I had it backwards not sure but then I had to trim out the dash bezel just a tad but it looks great and is more secure than mounting it in the bezel.
