Need a source for ISO 7736 Single-DIN housing

**Porter** · 07-17-2007, 08:58 AM

Does anyone know where to buy single-DIN sheetmetal housings?

Not the pocket, but the radio housing itself to build a DIN-size component. Front panel not required.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Jason Porter

I am in the search also currently. It seems rather odd that no one offers a simple DIN sized case with a blank front plate? The only one that seems DIN sized is way too long and already has a spot for a CD slot (I don't want it).

This might work, but it looks a little small and probably plastic (poor heat conduction) and no front plate:

Anyone else have any suggestions? Should I just buy a broken radio off of ebay or from a junkyard (damn, I've thrown away so many in my days)?

Hello,

you by making a custom solution.
