Which double DIN is the best?

I have been looking for a double DIN kit for my Kenwood DDX-8019 deck. I have been debating between the Orbital and the OEM kits. I would like to know the pros and cons of each of these. Also a good place to buy either of them. I know orbital is backed up and that's why OEM is my first option. I have seen a few posts about www.japanparts.com selling the OEM kit. I don''t like the big lip that i have seen on some of the Orbital kits. Which models do they make they don't have a lip?

Which one of these would you choose?

By the way i did my research but take into consideration that i work all day

I'm not 100% sure, but I thought it was confirmed that the JDM double din didn't fit USDM. There is a thread about it somehwere.

The JDM Double Din is only the upper dash piece so you'll have to figured out an HVAC relocation yourself. I don't think Orbital still sells their kit. So you basically screwed unless you find a used one or wicked cas ends up making one.

If only some one can figure out how to get the autoclimate to work the JDM dash piece would work!!
