My car had one in when we got it. And, when it went bad we replaced it with a new one. Both fit easily enough, but the radio plate had been cut.

I recently saw an ad for someone selling the '69-'70 radio/heater control bezel that was already modified for a DIN size radio so it must fit. I think it's just a matter of cutting the opening wide enough for a DIN radio then using something to fill the gap from the original radio opening which is a little taller than a DIN opening. I wish I could remember who was selling the bezels but I know I saw the ad in a Mustang & Fords mag.

The bezel you refer to is available from Sacramento Mustang - both a retail shop, catalog store, and on-line store.

It's tough to do with the stock bezel, but it CAN be done. What we've done in both my daughter's '69 and son's '69 is to cut the bezel right the the edge. Then we took a dremel and made the edges of the bezel and kept making them thinner and thinner just until the point that we could force the radio into it. It fit so tight in my son's car, we never even put any screws into it. In my daughter's, we drilled a small hole through the bezel and into the radio, then put a small self tapping screw into it to finish securing it.

Both came out very good.

Yeah I was looking at it all again this morning. It seems that is what I will have to do. Unless... > I can always make a copy of the pannel out of sheet metal when I get my box/pan sheet metal brake!

Thanks

Yeah I called them and asked them. You have to buy the entire stereo. They don't sell the custom radio bezel by itself.
Its not the companys fault. The stereo makers will not sell the part by itself, just the entire kit with stereo.
