I've been having trouble recently finding a dash kit for my 95 Celica. I bought one at Walmart, after reading the instructions I found it worked for pretty much every 90's toyota except a Celi.. I got one at Fry's electronics and it was the same thing except more expensive. I went to audio express and they showed me their book that said it was not available and would have to custom fabricate one, likely would cost hundreds of dollars.

I've had a couple stereos stolen from this Celi and my previous 94 coupe and I didn't have an issue finding a kit in the past. Anyone have a recommendation they know will work for a 6gc based on their own experience. I'm afraid to buy one online that wont work for a 6GC.

Any help would be appreciated. I'd prefer not to have to Fabricate something on my own..

I do recall some on ebay, but why is one needed?
Shouldn't the stereo just slot in place already?

Unless you have the massive OEM radio, in that case, you could buy universal cup holders?
I'm not sure how the OEM Radio is bolted in, but when i switched my stereo, and tray it was a direct bolt in.

the factory mounts were stolen along with my old stereo. All I have is a hole there. I'm thinkin it may be time to visit a junk yard.

i got the typical Schoche (sp) kit from walmart. it plugged right into the factory plugs and was color coded on the other side for aftermarket radios.
