dash kit for an 06
does anybody know where to get a dash kit for an 06. I think they may have changed the angle a little, but was hoping someone could confirm or deny this.

It is true that the new 350z has a change, its just a small curve on teh bottom of the HU area. i have seen some ppl put in 30-05 kit on and it fits just the bottom is missing a chunk. IDK if they have made one yet but im sure tehre is one on the way.

2005 kit in a 2006 looks like this, little gap at the bottom, I'll probably fill it with a vinyl. If you are in no hurry I'd wait for the new ones to (hopefully) fit better.

I just installed my alpine cda-9855 into my 06 tonight using the Metra kit. It looks like ****. I cant wait for them to release an actual kit for the 06's. Does anyone have any leads on a new kit?

no i doesn't fit perfect but it's all i had to work with...the car is still pretty brand new and unless you want to pay hundreds of dollars to have something custom fabbed and fiberglassed, you'll just have to wait for an '06 model to come out as there are many difference, mainly the bottom is has rounded edges and there are simply more curves now than before
the head unit itself sits flush on the bottom but sticks out on the sides as well as the top...i doubt anything can be done about that considering the curves

If a bunch of use bug them, maybe they will make it sooner rather than later.
