I don't really expect this question to get answered because it's kinda "out there", but last night my sony radio started to shift out of the slot.
can anyone suggest a way to get it to stay in one place?



and this is how it is suppose to be

 

1) put the slot on the top.
2) your kit should have came with a piece for the back of your radio to slide on the factory I-beam support
3) stuff card board behind the tabs that hold it behind the bezel.

 

option 3 = winner
thanks man!

 

Soo wierd. I have that EXACT same raido and that EXACT same problem.

 

use the factory screws that are used to hold the factory radio (above the a/c controls). It will still hold the aftermarket radio kit in place

 

my tabs on the plastic holder are screwed up but i just bend them back and it stays in lol

 

with my radio and kit ive found that I needed to do all three to get that bastard to stay put and feel solid.

with out the support (#2) on back of my radio it still wanted to tip down and slide out. it would then pop out even with the card board behind the tabs (#3) the only way i could put the support on was if i put the slot on top (#1). then i could attach the support im talking about to the radio. it will also let you adjust the tilt of your radio. your kit looks to be a tiny bit different so yours may very.
now that my radio rides that factory rail and i have the card board in, you cannot remove my radio from my dash with out taking the bezel off. its solid and cant be budged.

 

time for a new radio adaptor kit... had this problem a few year back. the reason for it sliding is broken 'clips' that clip to the radio bezel.

 

Yeah mine is doing the same thing.. I guess i need to invest in a new kit

 

or flip it over. with the pocket on the bottom, you lose two of the clips. pocket on top, you keep all the clips. I actually enjoy pocket on top now...perfect radio adjustments with my hand on the shifter ball. lol.. had it on the bottom before, that's when other snaps broke..

 

I just fliped it the black piece stays in better but the radio still slides out... I dont think i still have the thing that rides the rail and i cant find cardboard around the house right now so ill let yall know how it works for me
