Re: I am lost. What is a Din or double Din
DIN is a single receiver, double din is for a larger size found in a lot of ford and chevys and also our bose.

I got the true definition off of crutchfield's site.

What does 'DIN' mean?


DIN is an acronym for the roughly translated "Deutsche Institut fur Normung," a German standards and measurements organization. For our purposes, DIN simply indicates that a device complies with a generally accepted standard of dimension or configuration.

A DIN receiver, for example, is one that will fit in a dash opening having a width of 7.2 inches and a height of 2.11 inches, typically mounting with a rectangular metal bracket (DIN Sleeve) provided with the receiver

Car audio has always been a hobby. Like the G, I read a lot about the subject and with anything else you tend to absorb more of a subject when you're interested.
