On the top of the bezel there are two plastic legs that go in and hold the top of the bezel in. When you install it put those in first and slightly tilt it to get them in. Those legs are supposed to go under and end up holding the bezel from the back of the front lip of the dash.
On the passenger side if you glue a small piece of plastic just in front of the raised area there where it holds it will hold it back in further. Plastic piece about 1/8 X 1/8 X 1/2 inch. Just be sure to tilt it as it goes in above the double din unit and it should hold farther back.

Looks great. That's my winter project. My double din bezel is being delivered this week from C5BearsFan. I still have to decide on the head unit. I've narrowed it to Pioneer or Kenwood.

About fitment. Notice how that on the top passenger side the bezel is out a bit. Some are out 3/8 inch. It may just need to be pushed in to grab and hold. If it does not hold there is a fix for that.
