picking up a pioneer headunit cage/sleeve

[zoggy]

anyone know where i can find one for cheap? i bought a headunit from a friend for cheap, but sadly he cant find the sleeve to mount it in the din spot so im kinda just rigging it until i can find one.

just to note, incase it matters. its a deh-7400mp headunit. single din, for 98 ford mustang.

Have you tried going to a stereo shop? If you can't find it there call up Pioneer and see if you can buy it from them direct.

went to one stereo shop, they didnt carry pioneer, they recommended trying bestbuy and calling pioneer.. (which i dont mind trying, but rather not have to call and wait for a part) tomorrow im gonna hit up the local stereo shops though.

When in a pinch I will grab one that just fits half assed and then use my tin snips to make the proper holes so the unit will lock in the cage. Ask a high end shop about this if they want to order the part.

I walked into a local stereo shop looking to buy one and the dude had one laying around and let me have it for free!!! Try that

well, went to car toys today, walked in and asked them for one.. they tried to sell me some kinda din mountable thing.. i was like no.. the metal thing part and showed them from one on display, hes like oh ya coo, walked into the back and came out and gave me one. ;) woot, only good thing to happen this week so far.

Cool. Is the noise gone?

[zoggy]

ya the whine is gone now since i put that other rca in, when tearing it all apart today, i noticed that your installers did in fact run it down the driver side like the other set, but when it got towards the front, they then ran it over across and made it come up the middle console area rather than going all the way up to the front and around like the previous install (which was a pain to undo) The noise on the back speakers is still there a lil and I noticed its really from the amp not the cable or rca noise, the amp was positioned to low before and when shut and open over time the rca got bent a lil and the amp's rca housing got a lil loose, so i tighten it up and it got a lil better but still there a lil bit. But really you can only hear it if you get in the back seats, but I will tweak tomorrow and see if I can get it to lessen more.
