Metra has a Double DIN kit for 2nd Gens. Has anyone tried one?

Nice find!
The directions on the website show a template in the kit to overlay the dash trim panel and cut the proper sections to fit the face of the radio and then show a shaded area in the dash structure to cut out to fit the body of the radio. Still, it takes a lot of the guess work out of it and has a decent trim plate for a finished look.
