I am having some difficulties with installing the Sapphire 3 radio to the car. Inserting the radio to the dash slot is no problem but the radio is lose and do not hold properly.
Even with fixing a bracket at the back to try and hold the radio in place does not help.
Am I missing something ? Can someone suggest the correct way to do this so that my radio will be firmly in place in the dash slot.
Thanks
Installing Sapphire 3 Radio
Thanks Branston. Maybe this is what is missing when I bought the Sapphire 3. Really do not know how it looks like. Anyway you can send me a picture for me to try and find one ?
Hope this plate or plates will solve my installation problem or I will have a dangling radio.
Much appreciated. Larry

Look closely at the mounting arrangement on page 4 here:

The exploded view shows the plate on the trunk side of the dash.
Thank-you samba
