I've just installed my dvd player, but I can't find any adapter / mounting plate for it. right now I hold it in place with ... cardbord ...

None of the big boy companies make anything. You would have to make a simple trim ring out of 1/8" or 3/16" ABS plastic that would fit around the unit and behind the OEM trim panel. I carry the ABS in stock or you should be able to pick some up at your local audio shop.

Wrong....Pioneer makes your mounting kit. Including cage to fix it into place, and the plastic surround to finish it off.

I guess I was talking about big boy "installation kit" manufacturers. All of the double DIN radios I carry come with the mounting can and trim ring.... so I assumed that wasn't an option on the Pioneer if he didn't already have it. I think I would still rather make a trim ring out of a $5 piece of ABS over spending $80. But I do it for a living, so I guess I wouldn't think anything of it. Good find on the Pioneer part though!
