Yet Another Xtrons Question
I know a lot of you have been fitting the Xtrons recently. I'm thinking of taking the plunge, but what are you guys using for facias? Loads mention that the diameters are different on Xtron to standard (a bit wider and taller).
This is the unit I'm interested in, has anyone fitted one the same, any issues or things I need to know? https://xtrons.co.uk/double-din-andr...store=uk_store Thanks all

This style of unit fits exactly. Can't help with the model you specified.

I bought the one in Rogues post and it's a straight fit apart from having to bend or remove 2 plastic tabs at the top but that's easy enough done.
Personally I think they look a bit better than the universal designs. Each to their own though.

Thanks guys, the reason I was looking at the other is I can get it for £155 brand new, hence the questions around fitting.
Looking deeper into long-term reviews, I'm gonna leave it I think. I have a Kenwood DAB single DIN at the moment, I struggle with where to put my phone for nav, this was cheap enough to consider a whole unit change. I can't justify £300 plus another £100 for the additional dongles (DAB and Android Auto)
