Thread: It won't fit? CD player in my 4Runner

    Default It won't fit? CD player in my 4Runner

    So I want to put an aftermarket CD player in my 95 4Runner, but when I was checking stuff out on bestbuy.com and put in my vehicle, it says the most everything that I like won't fit!!! Does anyone have any suggestions? I plan on going to the store to talk to the car audio dept. but I was wondering if anyone else has run into this problem. I have installed a few stereos in my time but I have never had this problem!!!!



    Thanks! Angie

    95 4Runner... totally stock, for now....

    You will have to get a conversion kit at the best option. Take a photo of your current radio.

    I have seen the kits for this, they're called double-din (for double height) or din-and-a-half (fox 1.5x height). It's all based on the sizes of the old stereo systems from back in the 80s and before I guess.

    Should get a double-din or a din 1.5 kit and it should be fine.

    get a picture of the area, then get measurements, then go to bestbuy and have them show you what will fit or get the kits you were told about.

    That is exactly what I would do. They have guys that install systems there that can help you find the right kit to make sure the CD player you like fits right.

    Did you get this fixed? Where did you find the right kit?
