i want to put an aftermarket cd player in my 2001 protege ES but i'm not sure what kind of mounting kit i need. does anyone know? please help!!

also, does anyone know what kind of fog light bulbs i have in my car??

 

I'm not sure if the mounting kit for the 2001 and the 2002 are different or not, but my boyfriend (1fatES) had to use the mounting kit from a Ford to put his after market cd player in his 2002. They still haven't came out with a kit for the 2002's I know that at least.

 

do you happen to know what kind of ford mounting kit he used? i really really want to install my deck. tanx for the reply by the way.

 

They did my car with a Ford Mounting kit, I think it's the one for the Focus, it comes with a pocket that goes under the stereo.

 

Check with Scosche they are supposed to be making a kit that will work. I don't know if they have released it yet or not

 

i think metra made the kit for the 2002 proteges. I have one in mine.

 

check out this thread for pics:

here is the one made by scosche...specifically for our cars.

the model is MA1537.

Just got mine on order.

 

I don't like that cubbie hole **** at all. I had my sound shop make me a custom thing that just left a black panel. That way I can put some decals up on it and decorate the interior.

 

Is it necessary to have one of these? Cant you just get a pocket and your radio? or do u need like the pocket witch attactched upper din mount like in the pic?

Im under the impression, I can just get a pocket and my radio and dont need a mounting peice like the picture shown.

 

what you say is correct.....I don't have the kit like that. I like just my pocket better. I'll post some pics of the pocket later when I take em.

 

see i originally started out with the metra pocket kit.....I think it is a peice of ****....anywho when I get it installed I will post some pics...I think this will look much better installed.

 

it does look better installed....i posted my pics here: http://www.protegeclub.com/forum/sho...&threadid=2931

 

OK, I received my kit(and wiring harness) from Scosche last night and I installed it....I will try to get some pics of it later today. I would recommend getting this kit over a single pocket...It looks much better, and it also covers the gaps that the pocket doesn't. Check back later today.

 

here they are...sorry for the quality of the pics.
