Title: 2008 i30 FD RHD 2 din fascia
Post by: rob_danny on June 29, 2020, 21:13:06
Hi all,

Replaced my radio with a 2 din recently and the fascia obviously doesn't fit.

Is there anyone in the UK who provides fascias for rhd cars? All on google are lhd and afaik they don't fit at all...

Thanks all

Sorry rob_danny,

Not a lot of responses so far.. I wonder how easy or hard it would be for someone to make one with a 3D printer?

@The Gonz
:lol: I did think that. I'd need a real sample of one removed and then I could measure and mirror it for a final print. :victory:

Don't matter..
Bought a cheap hack saw and gave up halfway through. Will finish tomorrow though. Now I know what hard plastic means trying to be accurate but it's bloody impossible.

Contacted a few retailers in the UK and NONE of them make a rhd version of the fascia. Spoke with a bloke in car audio fitting garage and he said they always cut it in i30 to fit a 2 din radio.

If there would be a CAD model somewhere on the net I could edit it to fit 2 din.. otherwise too much hassle
