I certainly someone can clear something up for me.... I have a 2007 US Yaris S that came with the "integrated radio" the radio that is mounted into the trim panel with the vent cut outs.

I took it to a stereo place one time and they said there was no mounting hardware inside where the integrated radio sits to put in a double din, and there was nothing made for it. They did offer the single DIN with pocket. I ended up going this route.

However it seems like crutchfield says there is a double din kit for the car with integrated stereo. Howevere all I see is what appears to be side trims and has some mounts off of that for attaching to the radio. Now on my single din there is wings that come out and mount to the 4 screws that holds the radio in place. This doesnt exist on this double din piece. So I again repeat, I am standing by the stereo installer, I cannot do a double din...

But you guys have pictures of what appears to be my model based on the dashboard) and you have double din.. So can someone explain how this radio stays in place? Cause I really would like to get something like a Kenwood DNX6160.

BTW, N9QGS, I used the mounts right off the factory radio, did not need any kit besides the faceplate. The faceplate that Kong sells on eBay is a smaller hole than others, so you don't need any 'spacers' or any other special mounting hardware.
