2 Din = 2x 1 Din?

[tlyeow]

Hi Guys,

My car comes with a 2 Din space which I intend to install 2x 1-Din items... is this possible? I think I need some adapters or something right? now, it's just a big 2-Din hole!

Hope you can advise me...

either one, will require brackets... i think accessory shop sell dis.... and furthermore, there are ready-made brackets+faceplate custom tailored to specific car so the installation is nicer.. for example, cars like the new camry

DIN is a standard measurement for all aftermarket head units. It's the German abbv. for Deutsche Industrie Norm.

It measures 2 1/8" tall and 7 1/8" wide, the depth varies. Other common sizes are "din in an half"( 3 3/16)" and "double din"(4 1/4") the only thing that changes is the height, the width is still 7 1/8".
