I've got an '05 xA with the stock Pioneer head unit. The angle of the head unit's face doesn't line up with the console, and it's driving me nuts!!! I remember reading somewhere that the '04 had a slightly different angle to the console, and so the HU was mounted with a different bracket...

Can anyone confirm this/confirm part numbers? I hate to jimmy up the HU mount to straighten things out if there's a 'correct' part that fixes the issue.

Thanks!

 

that doesn't sound right.. i had an 04 and the deck fit fine. check to make sure it wasn't a dealer screw-up, like they forgot to put in screws or something..

 

I had the dash apart and the HU out, everything is mounted well, screws all accounted for and tightly in place. The %$#@ thing just doesn't line up...

I found out there are three part numbers for the stock stereo, all with different date ranges, and three different brackets...

 

wow that's crazy!

i'd say yeah, rather than wasting time/money at the dealer, do a few adjustments with a dremel that's what i had to do with my aftermarket deck in the A

 

I've tried shimming up the bottom of the bracket, but it puts the top out of alignment... back to the drawing board.

Maybe I should just get an '06 head unit...
