Default Where to find double DIN bezel?

I have an avic-f700bt and I need a bezel for my trans am. I see that Kee Audio makes one, but is currently out of stock. I really need to have one by Christmas or soon after. I don't possess the skills to make my own. Anyone have any idea on what where to find one or what to do?

Kee Audio (a sponsor here) is making a limited quantity of Firebird double DIN bezels but I doubt you could get one by Christmas (I think he makes them to order). More information is in this thread.

Sorry for the delays on these but I am currently recovering from back surgery which came at an untimely date (December 3). I had to have it done though. 2 portions of 2discs were removed in addition to some actual pieces of bone from my vertibrae in order to decompress my spinal cord. I still have to take it easy for the next 2-3 weeks minimum before I can begin doing fabrication of any kind...doctors orders.
I am still able to take orders for regular stocked items and have a very close friend of mine who is helping me get things shipped out.
I will resume these as soon as I am able and actually look forward to being able to do so.

Thats fine, hope you feel better soon. Just let me know whenever you're well enough to start making some more, I'll definitely buy one.

Talking

I am making my own right now. I ground the opening to fit the double din, cut down two ABS computer drive bay covers to cover the gaps on the sides and used the rest of the ABS covers dissolved in acetone as glue. I have the correct shape and size opening now.

To do: apply a layer of thin foam and then wrap the bezel in Vinyl. I'm considering trying my hand at french seams to make it look nice.

I'll post pictures when it is finished.

Edit: The headunit is a Pioneer AVIC-F700BT

Looking forward to when someone can make these bezels. At that point I can start looking at upgrading the stereo system for rizzle.
