Nice work. Looks factory from what I can see.

looks like fillers made from the original trim pieces, or maybe made from an install kit. (just guessing)
When i do double din or larger installs in these trucks (Daks and Rangos) i use a install kit, cut it in half (side to side) to use the mounts, and then cut the original trim in half (from top to bottom) and trim to make fillers for the curved sections.

I was mainly refering to situations where i install 7" or larger screens into the dash.
Basicly, I would cut the mounting kit in half from side to side. thus giving me a top piece to mount to the top of the screen that would bolt (screw) into the factory screw holes. and a bottom piece to attach to the bottom of the screen that would bolt (screw) into the factory screw holes.
for filler around the sides. I would use the factory trim piece or the trim from an install kit, cut it in half from top to bottom. Thus giving you two side pieces that would fill the gaps.
Granted, with the side fillers, lots of trimming may be needed.
I'll try to find some pics of an install I did in a 02 Durango of an 10 inch screen. That will show what i'm talking about better than I can type. :)
As for the install above. the parts you circled in red are the original side pieces cut to fit the new HU. He then goes and fills them in with filler and sands them down for painting. Which makes a snug, smooth install and looks like the dash was cut for that size screen. (again, Im, not the installer working on this, and these are only GUESSES from what the pics look like)

You would be surprised at how little it actually cost if you do it yourself or maybe have a friend help you.
Dont even have to use fiberglass if you do it right. just some inexpensive body filler and some sand paper from walmart. lol :mullet:

Make a deal with ya... you cough up some R/T wheels, and I'll do your WHOLE dash for you!! :) :) :)
