Default need help with recent install

I just put in a Pioneer D3 deck in my 07 ram, the stock dash doesn't work with it at all, it's too small. I did a little searching and found that I might need the dash out of a srt-10. Does that sound right to you guys? next question- do any of you know where to get one at a decent price?

yeah no doubt right?!?!? Hopefully I can find someone who can answer my questions because I really don't much care for driving a truck with no dash peice and my controls held together with zip ties

I'm going throught the same thing. I found that if you get a dash trim bezel from an 07 with navagation, and a double din head unit dash kit will work. here's a link to the same kind of bezel I bought (cheaper on ebay) shop around on ebay for different colors

here's a link to the dash kit:

Hope this helps!

you need the dash bezel for the ram with the navigation. I just did a similar install on my 07. check out my gallery. after searching on the net, including ebay, I found that it was cheaper to go to the dodge dealer and order a brand new one. it was $120 and I had it the next day. it all depends on what color your dash trim is, yours may be a little cheaper. The install kit you used is made for the navigation dash, I used the same one.
