CD Player Mounting Kit

Does anyone know where I can get a cd player mounting kit for my 84 GSL?

I haven't seen any anywhere except for ebay, and I would like to stay away from that one as the seller looks a little sketchy.

The kit would be for a single din cd player, so I would prefer that it cover over the extra din, but i'm much more concerned with just finding one.

Thanks a lot!!

rotorhead.ca will have a new one out soon. You can check out their old one, currently out of stock (or at least it was last time I checked).

It's nice, and comes in either a 3-gauge or cubby-hole design.

For 81-83, you simply dremel out the hole and mount the cage to it.

Good to hear they are near ready, I ordered one a few weeks ago. Any idea on how long it could take to get them back and shipped out?

Thanks
