i just came across this on eBay... it says its a part to fit a single DIN head unit in a 2003+ corolla... as far as i know the US corollas have the same interior as us, and it looks like it would fit...

its $9 + $25 shipping to AUS... looks like a good buy... i was rorted by my dealer for the HU bits - $80 in total for the spacers and a pocket...

can someone shed some light on whether this is a great buy, or it wouldnt fit...

EDIT: (helps to add a link: SINGLE DIN ADAPTER LINK!

cheers fellas,

Tom

It does look good, but a little flimsy.

Aerpro make a more sturdy looking unit, not sure of price, but any Autobarn or SuperCheap should be able to order it in for you:

oh wow yeah you're right... i thought the only thing available in aus was the toyota parts, which are cheapo bits of plastic that they charge too much for...

thats interesting to know, i might see what these bits are like..

I've checked Aerpro so many times before and never saw that. It doesnt come up when you search for toyota corolla you have to browse around :angry:

Good find though! I'll definately be getting this ordered in for me!

If anyone else has got this, what price could i be looking at?

I got the aerpro. I dont recommend it. After a lot of work from Mr Dremel we managed to make it fit and then it interfered with my deck so I couldnt use it anyway.

Dont buy it.

Spacers $7.50 each

Single DIN pocket $17? Can't remember the exact price..

I certainly didn't get it for more than $20.

i just got my single din pocket.. fits perfect no hassles at all... strong and cheap... 20bucks.. fills in the gaps on the egdes as the width is slightly wider than 2 din. i'll take a foto soon of the deck

looks factory... blends in with the other plastic crap

Hi iniff, what was the part number on the HU mounting kit?

The one linked to above is FP998204 where as when I do a search for a 2002 to 2004 corolla, it says to get FP998101.

Anyone know of any other good Single DIN HU mounting kits?

Sorry to bring up an old topic

but hey its better than starting a new thread! :D

So I went Straithfield car radios in Liverpool...thinking they have obviously sold single dins for the corollas oh boy was I wrong

ended up with does

Hey guys for the HU spacer try something like this from eBay. This kit will fit perfectly. also u can get an extra pocket inbuilt.

Which physically does not fit. Looks like the American Radios must be larger.

So that was money down the drain...Where did everyone get there single din from? I pretty much have all the plugs and the stereo just need a single din that fits.

Thanks for your help!

Oh if it helps its an 03 Ascent.

its easy... if any of your local car audio shops know ANYTHING, all you need is a dna WHP702. its a single din pocket with mounting wings, use your standard brackets off ur factory player and it all lines up. i use these things in lancruisers, prados, corollas, yaris's etc everyday. they should not pay anymore then $18 for them. although i have seen them at autobarn for $40 but thats autobarn for ya. here's the ling to dna audio website. geez doesnt anyone use google anymore????? http://www.dnaaudio.com.au/blowout_pages.html/whp702.html

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
