Hi All,

Been a lurker for a while but this is my first post... I guess after this I should go update my details and intro post.

Anyway I have a 2009 Australian i30 crdi and the only thing that annoyed me was the radio and the lack of Bluetooth/gps etc. To fix this I ended up buying a double din Android operating system from China that I was told would fit. It didn't have the top tray but I was willing to loose this for a cool system.

I received the radio and hooked everything up and the unit is awesome and works really well BUT I couldn't get the facia to fit. Everything fits well except up at the top, where it doesn't line up. it looks like there is a slight angle difference and when I did some more looking around it appears that there are only LHD facia's available.

I am just wondering if any one else with a RHD car has fitted similar and used an aftermarket facia or can point me in the right direction.

I am also wondering if its not LHD/RHD but due to the differences in the non-top-storage facia's to the facias with top-storage???

Hi don't know if you got this sorted or not but just fyi Chinese double din is slightly bigger than everywhere else. Chinese double din is 178x100mm (height x width) where as most others are 175x98mm (height x width) check out :link: Radio Fascia for HYUNDAI i-30 i30 Stereo Facia Panel Kit Trim Faceplate Surround | eBay
