Double din adapter for Rover 75... looks good, and at £20 doesn't break the bank!

I did and I did not, I could not decide wether to use the XTrons trim or not, you cannot have both so it was a toss of a coin job. I had the walnut trim made with 1.5mm clearance at the sides and 5 mm at the bottom, just enough to allow the screen to flip open without catching on the facia trim. The rails I made to hold the Xtrons in place has grubscrews to adjust the horizontal position as I knew it would be impossible to fit the walnut trim accurate to 0mm. Have to hand it to Simon for making the trim accurate to the mm from my exact spec. I could not be more pleased with the end result,
