Hi.

Theres one available from somewhere - if you do a search of the forums for "facia panel" you should find it. There's also different requirements for interfacing to the wiring loom depending on trim level/year. eg for some years S trim you can get a wiring harness adapter for others you need to replace amp and rear speakers I think?? Anyway lots of stuff on this if you search for something like "adapter" or "head unit".

if you mean a complete blanking plate to cover the radio area - there isnt one, BUT if u mean convert the double DIN gap to a single DIN gap then there are loads of useful posts about this subject....

just use the SEARCH function at the top of the page and type in facia plate.

I have in my head that SQ+ in Manchester do them. I think I asked before! That's for a single DIN conversion.
