Single DIN Bracket
Getting ready to install an aftermarket Kenwood HU in my 2009 Ford F150 STX. Does anyone know where to get a single DIN bracket that will replace what I have in there now and make everything look nice and neat or am I out of luck. I have seen the double din but cant seem to find that same thing for a single din unit. Thanks for any help you can give.

Most kits will make the typical double din capable of a single din with pocket, plate covering the opening, or 2 single dins. IMO a single din looks out of place on the big dash of a F-150. Why not a double din?

Dont understand what you mean? My head unit is only going to take up a single din opening not a double din. Maybe I dont understand what you are asking.

I just used a Metra kit from Best Buy 
and its great! By far the nicest metra kit I have used so far. Single din with a nice large tray below.
Yes they do look a bit out of place but mines a fold out DVD so it maintains the size ok. The trim ring for the radio needed to be modded with a bit of paper behind it to keep it out some and flush (you will see what I mean)
Go grab one, I was not disappointed and that's sayin something
