ok, and did you measure the depth of the head unit as some cutting may be required  :undecided:

So when u push it back in flush it pops back out ? Make sure theres nothing stopping it from going back if its still wobbly wrap some selotape or something round the cd player .... Dont go mad just one line around it that should secure it in place if you do it properley !

yes it just seems the cage clips aint quite in the right place so the cage not it secure, but it sits ok till put the cd player in then it pushes out slightly(enough to make me mad i like things flush)
