racerblur Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 I was thinking about installing a new car stereo into my Volvo 850, but I was told there's no way to secure a double din? They said it would fit, but there's not way to make sure it stays put. Anyone ever tried? How did you do it?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prasamin Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 you'll need a securing bracket (back strap) behind the radio to support it....and you most likely will need to custom make a bezel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjg31684 Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 I put a new pioneer CD deck in my 850 but there is no way of locking it in. What i did was had the installers put a two disc CD holder under my deck and then just slide the deck in. It doesn't move its a secure fit.
