Where can I find a faceplate?

I have a unit that I removed from my car when it was broken into. The idiots that broke in took the faceplate from it only. This was about 2 years ago. Fast forward to the present. I stil have said unit, still faceplateless. I liked the unit, and was thinking abuot putting it into the vehicle I just bought. The only problem is, I need to find a face plate, and I don't want to pay a fortune for it. Anyone know where to look to find one reasonibly priced.

A) steal one back
B) buy a new deck
C) you could try *if you have proff of ownership* writing the manufacture.

tony_buttons is an unknown quantity at this point
Ebay sellers sometimes have pretty good deals on just faceplates. Type in the model number in the search.

if its a pioneer, you can order one on their website, no questions asked. Unless its an eclipse head unit there isn't any serialized face plates (although there should be)

that or ebay

Nah I don't care, I'm mainly wanting this to have something in the truck I bought until I can get everything replaced. It has a stock tape player in it. I doubt it's the one stolen off mine, the place it was stolen from isn't exactly loaded with people that can afford a computer or people that'd have the knowhow to put it up on ebay... But that's where the gym is located, so I have to go there to play basketball...

I used to have ppl come in to Best Buy all the time saying that they just got their faceplate stolen and that they needed a new one. half the time i bet that they stole the radio and didnt get the faceplate cuz the owner had it....

I dont understand why headunits arnt serialized or dont have the simple protection of our stock HU's by prompting a password.

thats nothing. someone came in to circuit city with a dvd player that still had the wires ripped off the back and wanted a new wiring harness. They called the cops, serial matches a stolen unit, and they went to jail.

eclipse DOES have some nice security features, unfortunately thieves won't realize the deck they are stealing is going to be useless
