Radio Fitting

Elmo:
Just bought a new stereo for Elmo, never thought to check the depth of the void  :(

I would like to keep the stereo as it has MP3 capability and built-in Blootooth for my mobile, but I need a "collar" about 3/4" to 1" deep to sit between the radio fascia and the surface of the console.

Does anyone know where I could source such a thing? Material not crucial I can always paint it.

Failing that any clever peeps out there could make me one as I am terminally ham-fisted? Appropriate exchange of beer tokens obviously ;)

gtomo2:
pop along to halfords they do cases that radios slid into you could cut one of them down to size. they may even have a colier for it

Bulli:
BIG HAMMER!!!, have you pushed all the wiring back as the connections take up a lot of space, failing that as Gtomo says halfords.

Sharpshooter:
I have this problem on mine too. I have made a 1/2 inch mdf one. If you pp along to your locl wood shop, they should be able to make you one from a scrap peice. Dont forget to take the stereo cage with you for the sizes.

Also, dont make it too high, as it will obstruct you heater controls. :)

Pike:
I had one made out of plastic by a local firm,or you could make one out of mdf/plywood,simple really.........halfords or landrover dont do em,I checked
