I have an Eclipse head unit and a single DIN controller for a Rockford Omni II harddrive music system that I want to install in the double DIN hole the factory HU comes in. Problem is, while the hole is a double DIN size, I am not aware of any kits that are made for the installation of two single DIN devices in said hole. Anyway, is this going to have to be a custom installation or do I have options? How do you mount an aftermarket HU without the use of one of those installation kits with the mounting cage? I mean, what would the HU mount to if you didn't use one of those kits?

 

First mount the head unit to the kit with the iso din brackets then secure the omnifi to the eclipse.

This is what the "Metra" brand looks like:

 

CRFracer,

Here is another option from Crutchfield. Kit mounts 2 single din units for $14.99 plus shipping.

hope this helps

 

That kit comes with two mounting setups. One that can be used for a single double din, or two single din, and another with a pocket that you can remove. So with one kit you can actually mount up to four single din's in two trucks.
Don't know why they sell it that way. I have the double one in my truck now, and the other one left over. You would think they would sell just the double by itself.
