Hello, I bought this radio in the pictures for my 74 914. Knobs center to center seem to be good with my small plate pictured here. BUT I will need to make it 1/4 inch wider on both sides to fit, any suggestions on how to cut it to make it look professional? Does anyone have a 4 inch wide plate to trade me? Mine is 3.5 inches wide.

DIN stands for Deutsches Institut für Normung, which is the German Standardization Institution that created the standard for head units used in cars today.
The ISO (International Standards Organization) adopted this DIN as ISO 7736, which is used by car manufacturers around the world. They are still called DIN radios because it was this German institute that invented the original standard. DIN 75490 standard specifies the dimensions for the unit when viewed from the front; it must be 180 x 50 mm. Single vs Double DIN Stereo |
