its held on for now like this. This is the stock bracket for the stock headunit. So far, ive been to bestbuy, and a couple of local audio dealers. Non have any brackets that are universal. I found that difficult to comprehend.

Finally gotten around to working on the orbital kit that i purchased, and started to get an alpine 2-din unit in, the side mounting brackets are the toughest, i tried using the stock brackets, but the holes do not line up with what's on unit side.
Looks liked i have to drill holes to make it align correctly.
I guess that's the most frustrating thing bout it, it would have been nice if the kit includes some type of universal brackets for the 2-din units.
