Default best double din dash kit?

i need to get to work and also need to order one asap so i dont have time to search all day,, could you all recommend the best dash hu install kit that is specifically made for the 350, preferably not the ones that have the single din that you can break off the other din and the plastic matches the best with the best fitment, price not important.. thanks so much!!

btw, are all wiring kits equal, or is there a preferred brand that you all would recommend? thanks again!

metra worked great on my 05 base. I had to cut out the middle piece. no worries, can't notice.

no the metra piece for 06+ you do not have to break the middle piece. the kit came with a double din, a single din with pocket, and an iso din. ill sell you the double din bracket for $10 if you want

i just installed my double din pioneer and have the same unsightly gaps as this member did.... so much for this threads use... https://my350z.com/forum/audio-video...t-big-gap.html
im just venting but am a little t.o.'d because i ended up getting exactly what i was trying to avoid by posting a thread about these kits. but im not angry so dont think i am posting for no reason, just looking for any ideas or suggestions from those who have experience with this issue..? (btw this was the metra 99-7602) thanks!
