What does it tight when a sports car stereo is DIN or double DIN and how do I know if I own one?

I've installed stereos before mostly surrounded by fords but Im trying to install one in a toyota and ive be told the factory stereo could be DIN and Ive never heard of that. So I stipulation to know this so I can figure out how to install this stereo.


Answers:    A standard DIN size radio is 2x7 inches contained by size, a double DIN is 4x7 and din and a half is 3x7 inches. Roughly. Youve get a celica, and you being the lucky devil you are owns a fine piece of, very well, japan. Anyways, double din in a toyota is pretty standard, and it adjectives depends on what you have. Up to 97, Celicas used adjectives standard DD sizes, which means A - Remove factory radio and install foreign radio using the factory provided mounting brackets and screws, or -B- using a Toyota pocket cog 88-00-8000 and factory bracket or -c- buy a double din unit. Newer body style use a gear, but I forgot the nnumber. DIN mounting is the easiest and safest.
A standard DIN is about 2 inches towering while a double-DIN is 4 inches.

Toyota mounting is called ISO, which is slightly different from DIN. The radio's feeler trim is removed for these installs and brackets are screwed directly into holes in the side of the element. the metal mounting sleeve is not used. The radio you look for is still call "DIN".
DIN is about 2 inches high like the size of a regular stereo and a double-DIN is 4 inches towering if you bought the dash tackle for this then you shood hold no problem but if they dont make it later you could use the factory brackets to install it
