Well You know when you install your aftermarket radio you have this trim piece below it. Well Its two piece. I think its rather unattractive and would like to put one solid piece.

So I guess it would be a piece of material that radio installers use for dashes. I was just wondering if they sell them any where

I have the metal pieces that go around the stereo, if you had an aftermarket unit. Is that what you need, or are you talking about the physical Mazda plastic stereo surround. I could lend you mine so you can use that as a mold. I'll get it back, when i head back down there for school. M'kay.

best buy, like 5 dollars, go to the car stereo install area

prolly not the cheapest you can find it... but its what you are most likely looking for

for that matter any car stereo install place should have it, they will most likely sell you some for an ok price

So I went to best buy today and they were like WTF are you talking about.

Me: "Do you have black trim to fill in like gaps and ****."

Best Buy: "no"

Me: "so what happens if you get a car that does not have a radio kit.

Best Buy: "Oh we got every radio kit for every car"

Me: Running away
