[QUOTE="texastoast, post: 8353125, member: 664697"] I feel like I'm taking [I]crazy pills![/I] Just got a Pioneer avh-x5500bhs from ebay, along with a metra mounting kit for my car. My problem is: I took the mounting bracket off the factory head unit. It lines up as it should on the mounting holes for the new Pioneer. BUT, the screws won't screw in! The hole looks completely different than the factory unit, which is also a pioneer. The factory one looks threaded, this one does not. They supposedly use the same 5mm screws... But I cannot for the life of me get this screw in there! Anyone know what I'm supposed to do? I'm sure this is a ridiculous question haha. Do I need to buy different screws? And if so, where could I find them locally in a smaller town? Here are pics of the holes I'm talking about. Stock on top, new HU on bottom. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
