the mygig is wider than a regular dD and slightly shorter...
What I would do is make a template of the unit, and cut it in, then fill the "ears" with some ABS and bondo over them to make them flush.
its a lot of work, and any shop is going to charge you an arm and a leg, but if you have a dremel or cut off wheel, its not all that hard to make it fit. Its making it pretty thats the problem.

You won't have any luck finding a bezel. I did the whole thing.... It's a pain.
Anyway, my bestbuy was able to fit my DNX5120 Kenwood into my existing bezel with a little work. The labor was about 250-300, but was worth every penny IMO.
I suggest asking your bestbuy. I didn't know who else to ask so I went to them first. They did a good job, but I wish it was 100% flush. Oh well.
