Rite guys I hav a 05 blobeye impreza which I am fitting a new single din cd player, as my standard one is double din I also got a pocket to convert it, however I am struggling to fit, does the pocket go above the cd player or below? And do u use the metal side bits off the standard cd player to fasten it in? I would be grateful if someone could help or post some pictures of what u hav fitted. Also do I need another iso lead to connect it? Cheers

Yer mine is the single black pocket and I thought it must fit above the radio! Does the pocket just clip into the standard brackets off the old radio or do they screw in Carlos?

No problem i'll hav a go and how I get on! Where do u get the trays with the flip front? Also when I tried to fit the cd player above the pocket you couldn't get the new cage to go in because of the original brackets?

When I got mine there was sod all in the centre console, just a great big hole. I didn't know how to fix the problem so just slotted in two of those cages stacked up on top of each other then slotted in my stereo and a single din pocket. im sure there was something missing though as it was just an empty hole and no brackets or anything. The ones with the flip front are from the forester, they look quite neat and I fancy one myself.
