Hermosa Owner's
Manual
STEP
4: Adjust
to
Fit Your Vehicle Specific Kit
One
of
the
most
frequent
questions we get
is
"How
can
your radio
fit
my
car?".
The Hermosa radio
is
a universal solution (one chassis
for
most vehicles) and
its control face
is
a fixed
size
(3.5)/ W x
1.5)/
H).
Most American cars
fit
the
radio
and
the
bezel from behind
the
dash. The bezel tits around
the
Hermosa control
face to fill
the
original factory opening.
The Hermosa control face
is
NOT
referred
to
as
a faceplate. A faceplate
is
a
piece
that
overlays
or
covers
the
top
or
front
of
the
dash. A faceplate
is
used
in most European
or
Japanese cars, and
can
also be used on a modified dash
to
disguise any blemishes
or
poorly made modifications.
Locate
the
appropriate bezel
or
faceplate and perform
the
following
steps
tomount
the
radio behind
the
dash opening:
FACEPLATE:
Use
the
supplied nuts and washers
to
align
the
faceplate onto
the
shaft.
DO
NOT
overtighten. Once
the
shafts are lined up
to
the
shaft openings
on your vehicle-specific faceplate, use a
nut
and washer
to
hold
the
faceplate
in place on
the
shafts. Adjust
the
nut
height
so
that
the faceplate aligns flush
with
your dash and
the
radio's control face.
(See
"Figure
4-
Install Vehicle Specific Faceplate)/).
BEZEL:
Place
the
bezel
on
the
face
of
the radio and install
through
the
back
opening
of
your
dash.
NOTE:
With the faceplate pictured below, the area around the radio face
(chrome
or
black) mounts on top
of
the dash.
