one litre wonder ;) Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 should be a snug fit , but has the cage been fitted to a car before ?? if so some of the tabs may of been bent down but not straightend and thats what is not allowing it to fit , besides the cages for different headunits sometimes have the relise clips in different places Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerz Posted February 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 cheers onelitre, no the head unit was brand new. fitted the cage after alot of swearing etc... and the fit is still sticking out the same amount.grrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigz™ Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 are the cables stuck behind the headint and infront of the dash?Mine was a bitch to squeeze in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikerz Posted February 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 well i tried to squeeze them out and the original fits back in fine. I put it in without the wiring sone and it still dont fit right. I think il just have to live with it till i buy a real GPS head unit when i have the cash.
