Theres a blokey on the omegaowners forum that i go on, and he runs a car audio center. He posted that some one came into his shop in search for a head unit adaptor, as he had been sold a car with a "loose" head unit and it needed an adaptor.....this is from his website with the posting on...
Some Stereo`s Just Won`t Fit !
I Guarantee that everyday we will have a conversation that goes along the lines of, my stereo doesn`t fit properly, its loose, or I need a fascia adaptor. This is because many of the car manufacturers have made their dashboards in various shapes in the hope that you will buy their non standard shape stereo equipment. We carry a full range of fascia adaptors and generally claim that we can put a stereo in just about any car. However, the guy that bought this car was told by the salesman that the stereo had just been quickly slung in to sell it, and all he needed was a fascia adaptor. As you can see, there is no way that an adaptor will be found to put a Peugeot 106 dedicated fitment stereo into a Vauxhall Corsa. If you are gullible enough to beleive this from somebody trying to sell you a car, come and see me, I would love to sell you a car.
Now if only I could find that third wheel . . . . !

Its a weird customer phenomenon that the first person they speak to about a product, they trust. They then will not listen to ANYONE who says differently.
Morons.

Someone had wired in a Renault stereo to my dads old Astra mk3
It kept blowing fuses for the rear wiper and we couldn't figure out why,
I replaced the fuse with a bit of wire, turned the car on an waited for the smoke,
Whoever had fitted the stereo had cut into the car loom  and the renault stereo loom went up in a puff of smoke
I ripped the headunit out of the dash, and pulled what was left of the wires out to find there was a OEM plug still there, plugged in an OEM stereo and it worked fine
Yes plenty of idiots out there....
