Default Radio Support Bracket?

When I bought my car, it had the stock radio in, when I pulled the stock radio out to put a new radio in, I found that the piece that the radio mounts on was broken. The piece I'm talking about it about a half inch thick support that runs under the radio. Does anyone know what this piece would be called, or where I could find one. It really bothers me that my radio constantly bounces up and down in the mount and rattles.

Thanks guys.

Its part of the bezel itself. So you will need a new radio bezel.

No, its part of the dash support. Ill take a picture of it tomorrow. If its part of the bezel then that's about $70 ill be pulling one from the junk yard of that's the case.

It is part of the bezel itself. You need a new bezel if you want the radio support.

Alright. Thanks. Guess its time to go to the junk yard. Definitely not paying $70 for a new one.

Are you talking about the stamped metal part directly below the stereo, or the plastic arm that attaches to the radio and that stamped steal part?

The metal part. I believe it goes from one side of the dash opening to the other, and where it connects to the drivers side of the dash it is broke off so the radio bounces when I drive. I'll get a pic tomorrow.
