Review on πŸš— Metra 95-5818 Double Din Dash Kit: Perfect for 1997-2003 Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Mazda Vehicles by Steven Guevara

Revainrating 5 out of 5

What do you expect: Electrical

Stereo works well, plays DVD, works with USB and micro hard drive, plays CDs, I have this Installed in my 2001 f250 heavy work truck I had to use a file to trim off some of the edges to make it fit. I did a little research and got the correct adapters so it was very easy and 1 note, take the wire marked for the brake pedal or shifter and run it directly to the ground on a piece of metal under the dash. Then you can watch DVDs and view pictures for albums at any time. If not, there is nothing you can do as it blocks your screen by security rules. Just ground a wire and it works fine, it's what you expect too, the touchscreen is like with the phone has a thick screen protector, you have to touch it slowly and accurately, but it works fine, the only complaint I have What I've got is that the volume control lags when you turn it up or down, it takes a few seconds to catch up on what you've been doing and you might get your ears blown if you're not careful, but the remote seems to turn the volume up in a jiffy to change, except that it's a good stereo for the price.

Pros
  • Dashboard kit installation for double din/iso radios
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
