Hoodlums decided to break into my car and try to destroy my stereo since they could not figure out how to remove it. I was able to get the stereo out and straight again but they kept the face plate. The stereo will more than likely work fine but I need a new face plate. Can I buy just the face plate for my head unit. I have receipts to show I purchased the radio and am not trying to get a face plate for a stolen radio... I have been checking ebay and other auction sites waiting to see my face plate show up but have not yet seen one for my HU...

My head unit is a Pioneer deh-1400... If anyone has a face plate they want to sell or know where I can get one please let me know.

If it comes down to the last resort you might have to call Pioneer to order it from them if all else fails.

I saw that one... It is in Ontario Canada so can rest assured it's not mine. I plan on bidding on it if it does not go too high in price. I've seen a couple go for $80 plus. If it gets that high I would just go out and buy a whole new radio for that price. I contacted Pioneer through a local shop and they wanted more than I could get the whole headunit new. I guess they do this to keep people from stealing units and buying a face plate for it, but they screw the honest people who for some reason or another need a new face plate. I may just save my money up and get the Alpine 7893... I like the silver and blue face of the 7893 and it has the higher output so I can be happy with the HU power till I get my amp... It will all depend on how much the face plate on ebay goes for...
