for a SINGLE din head unit your going to be making that piece yourself. The aftermarket bezels are designed for double din head units.

You may also have to modify mounting brackets.

You also need to be ready to switch out your amp as the stock connections between the head unit and the amp are fiber optic. And you will need a 2ohm amp for the stock bose speakers.

Sell the flipout Single DIN head unit and buy a double din unit

Then get the bezel linked here
