Anybody know where i can find specs on how big car radios are?I'm looking for the dimensions (ie. height, widht, depth, etc.)The reason im looking for this is that im going to see if i can mount my police scanner under my radio.btw, It's legal where i live to do that as long as you have a amateur radio license.

Sure...go through Crutchfield, I think they have the dimensions on the "specs" page. Could be wrong tho..

Could be wrong tho..couldnt find anything on crutchfield.. it just tells you the chassi code, not how big it is i have some more time now after work so ill try to find something on google.

You want dimensions of the stock stereo?

No, im looking for the size of a half height radio.basically im trying to figure out if a half height radio plus my uniden 780 scanner will fit. i'm aware that i will probably have to move the uniden into a shell from a old radio, but im not sure the front panel of the 780 is small enough to fit underneath a radio.

Dimensions of the stock radio would be nice...

The vibe is a dual-DIN radio. You can fit two standard-size ISO/DIN mount radios into the spot. If your scanner is smaller than a standard aftermarket radio, it'll fit fine.

most all din radio will be about the same size.. just for reference Her's the dimensions on the Single-Din unit I have:HxWxD = 52 mm x 188mm x 161mm (2 1/16 x 7 3/16 x 6 3/8)Hope this helps.Omar

The DIN standard is 2 inches high by 7 inches wide.DIN = Deutsche Industrie Norm
