Default Double Din Mounting Kit

Hey all, new to the forums, hopefully someone can help me out.

I have a 2008 Hyundai Tiburon GT and purchased a Kenwood DNX5120 and looking to get it installed. I need to find a mounting kit and anything else I may need to make this go smoothly. So if anyone has any information or other websites that could help me out that would be greatly appreciated

Your big problem is probably going to be getting the wires to match up. We see people on this forum all the time who buy an aftermarket radio, and the wires won't match up. I don't recommend it, stick with the stock radio.

Yankee,
I purchased a Sony radio to put in my 2008 Tiburon GT and everything went smooth for the most part. After the radio was installed my speedometer wouldn't work but I took it right back and they fixed it within 5 minutes. The mounting kit they had in stores at Circuit City when I bought the radio. It looks great in my car, I was really pleased. I plan on posting some pics of my car when I get home in a couple days under the album Jamie's Tib or something like that if you want to see what mine looks like.

[Edit]
Well I'm ignorant tonight I guess, mine wasn't a double din kit. Anyway, I never had any troubles other than the speedometer and like I said, they fixed it pronto.

Don't stick with the stock radio thats a horrible idea...troubles matching wires? Just pick up a $12 wire harness that plugs into the stock one and matches the wire colors on the back of the doubledin

Good source for factory OEM pigtails for connecting aftermarket head units:

If you buy the unit from Crutchfield's (http://www.crutchfield.com/), they usually supply the pigtail for your car with the installation package.
