Dont think anyone produces the bezels yet. I heard someone on here is going to start to sell them. Its pretty much a custom job. Camaros are much easier to accommodate the double dins.

I custom made a double din unit for my Camaro and have been thinking about mass producing them. My only hang up is that I have to find a plastic molder to copy mine. Here is my finished product. I wrapped it in simulated leather after the molding was finished.

I wanted everything to look centered and If I left the buttons there it would have been too low. Plus I only had the fog light button there anyways. I took the SS plaque and mounted it to the center console similar to the Firehawks.

That bezel looks awesome, Phantom. I would just have fog lights on with the headlights all the time anyway. Really clean.
