I couldnt find one in stores, including best buy. And when intalling, there is a plastic piece in the back that is sticking strait up and down, just pop out the plastic rivets and wiggle it till it breaks off. Otherwise your new stereo may not fit. You do not have to take your dash or anything apart to do that, like some people in other threads suggest, Just trying to save you some time. Good Luck

Thanks for all the advise! I got all of my mounting hardware from the store that I bought my HU from for free. They are local and I have purchased a lot of stuff through them. I also got the amplified antenna adapter etc from them so everything should come in a nice, little box.
Only one thing, suggestions for taking out the stock radio? What tools should I use to pull the stereo? I know that there are two horizontal slots at the bottom of the radio but is there something that I can use to push in there easily? I don't think that my dash install kit is coming with a tool but I could be wrong. I am picking up the kit tomorrow since the HU I wanted wasn't in stock when I paid them a visist. By the way, anyone in the KC area that wants quality car audio done I HIGHLY RECCOMEND Independence Audio. They run about the same price as Best Buy but they will haggle a little with you especially if you are buying a lot of kit.
