I bought it through American hydro carbon.

Older DD Bezel:
- Diagonal: 7 3/4"
- Height: 4"
- Width: 6 3/4"

New VetteNuts DD Bezel:
- Diagonal: 7 3/4"
- Height: 3 14/16" =3 7/8"
- Width: 6 3/4"

Kenwood DD Head Unit:
- Diagonal: 7 10/16"
- Height: 3 14/16"
- Width: 6 10/16"
I was looking through this thread on radio replacement options but this one had me puzzled. No disrespect meant and maybe I'm told old for new math but in my day
2/16=1/8"
10/16 =5/8",
14/16=7/8"

yes, they are the same. But expressing it in 16ths shows that's what it was measured to. 5/8" is a pretty rough measurement. 10/16 is a much finer resolution.
