    Having the same idea, I'm going with gauges below the single din.

    I purchased an exceptional fascia for my MK5, but given your dash, a simple pocket should be fine. A lot of headunits do come with a fascai surround to avoid any gaps, so perhaps a chat with your local car audio shop is in order. I'd assume the fitment boys end up with a box of these over time. Any car din size pocket will probably fit, I'd visit a wrecker and try to find the perfect size edge as well. Perhaps you can get a Falcon one with bigger edges and file it down or something.

    For future reference the fascia I bought on e-bay UK is from celsusice.co.uk
    It is a very high quality item, and was way better than expected. Comes withan ariel extension piece and factory loom to aftermarket adaptor as well. Wasn't overly expensive delivered, less than $50AU. Very high quality plastics and design. For instance all the wires are printed all the way along with their purpose, such as left front, right rear speaker etc. Nice!

    The 3 gauge holder WAS expensive and difficult to get, as they didn't want to post outside the UK. Luckily my brother is over there. It was worth it though, as the gauges are angled towards the driver, which is a nice touch. This sucker cost me more than the fascia above!! venommotorsport.com
    cost 31 pounds delivered to the UK ( ouch! ). Perhaps someone knows of something local and cheaper!!

    All depends on the look and features you want.
