Which dash kit to use with aftermarket stereo?

[Ace Motorsports]

Hello Everyone, I am new to this forum. Apparently all of the mobile audio shops in the greater Phoenix area can't tell me what double din dash install kit to use on a 2004 F350. I have been searching on the internet and can't seem to find one there either. I am sure someone makes this, anyone know where I can find one? I need one that 'clicks' into place on either side like my factory radio. Thanks!

Look at Crutchfield: LCD TV, Car Stereo, Home Theater, Speakers, Digital Cameras they have all of the sutff for car audio. I got my kit from them. The "face plate" has a small pocket that you can put above or below the radio to make up for the difference in height.

Honestly, i'm not sure they make a double din install kit for your year model. IIRC, you have to remove some of the dash at the bottom of the stereo to get a double din to fit. If you remove the stock stereo, you'll see what i'm talking about.
It's the brown trim piece below my thumb in the picture below.

Thanks for the suggestions, looks like I will have to fab something up.

I had a problem with getting this question answered with my 2010.. I know its a different type of dash but another place you could try if you want to put a double din radio in is called Installer.com - the parts that pro car stereo, home theater and electronics installers use - do it yourself car stereo parts, wire harnesses, radio mounting kits ipod adapters and more, you could possibally find something to work for you. Good luck!
