New stereo loose

[disco]

Hi,

I fitted my new stereo last night but it seems a little loose. Its the cage in which the stero fits that does not seem tight. is their any way to tighten the fit of the cage up?

Cheers Dav

I have exactly the same problem, just came on to post about it and saw this. I tried last night to use duct tape to tape the cage tightly onto a surface behind the where the stereo goes. It worked well for a while but as the CD player started to heat up the tape became less sticky and eventually just came off.

Is it the cage or the stereo that is loose? Is the cage too big for the stereo or the cage too small for the space?

I have both problems... Doh!

cage seems to small for the space, Stereo fits in to the cage perfectly and clicks. What make of stereo are you trying to fit. I found this dunno if it will help http://www.cliosport.net/ice/ice-1.asphttp://www.cliosport.net/ice/ice-1.asp (see fitting) it shows some little clips being bent with a screw drive which i didnt do. So I am going to give that a try next.

Im trying to fit a Pioneer, not sure of the exact model at the moment.

When I get home Ill have a fiddle about with it, let you know if I have any success...

Cool I am going to wait till I get the stalk adaptor before I jam mine in!!! probably permanantly

you need to bend the metal tabs back to get a tight fit (arrowd in pic)
