Mate I had the same trouble with mine, all I did was get the pocket as you have done and just place the head unit on to of it without securing it in, it has been like that for the last 4 years since I have had the car aswell. And I like to throw the car around abit and it still has not moved

Ive done the same as above. Its temporary until I get a screen in there. It is held in by metal clips on the side of the headunit that would usually hold the head unit trim surround. I have bent them to make it a more secure fit. It still pops out on hard acceleration though :(
