Brian,
You need an aftermarket DIN dash kit. I prefer and recommend kits from
either Scosche or Metra. American International is also decent and is
widely available at electronic chains (e.g. Best Buy). I would stay away
from everything else.
Make sure the kit is specifically made for the Miata (although some
generic Mazda 88-95 will work just as well, afaik).

I saw ‘em at BrainStorm. Don’t know if it’s in their catalog,
but they’re in the shop…
Radio Shack sells kits containing the required part (plus a bunch of
other mounting and dressing plastic for various sized radios in various
cars) for about $15.

If you still have not gotten one I have an extra you can have, I work for a
Mazda dealer in Mass and build up a collection of these..
E-mail me at FuLo…@Aol.com
I just order a cubby pocket thing (for under my factory radio) from my
local Mazda dealer… Unfortunately it was $23!

You could almost buy a KG Works map light for that much.
Almost. :)

Do not use the universal Mazda install kit from Metra. I put everything
together just as it said and the damn thing wouldn’t fit in the dash. It
was too wide at the bottom.

Nevermind…. I just went to pick it up and the cubby is to REPLACE the
radio, according to the Mazda parts guy they don’t make a pocket/cubby
thing to fit under the factory radio just a plate.
I spoke too soon…

My ’95 came with a cubby hole that fit under the stock cassette/radio. I
replaced the radio with a standard DIN size one and bought a taller
cubbyhole from the dealer. It needed to be trimmed to fit because it was a
bit too tall.
I got the specific part number info off of miata.net

I just installed the universal Mazda install kit from Metra, in my Miata.
You’re right it is too wide at the bottom. I simply used a file and
squared the 2 bottom round corners of the dash. Worked fine after that.
