Review on πŸš— Metra 99-7892 Dash Kit for Honda and Acura 90-01 by Jason Man

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not quite suitable for 1995 Integra GS-R

I just installed this kit on my 1995 Integra GS-R. It fits although the back does not attach as instructed. I ended up using a DIN mount with side mounts. I cut the top clips from the bracket as directed and twisted the radio and bracket into place. There are two holes in the back of the bracket that need to be screwed into the dash assembly somehow. Most likely in this case the back of the mount is just touching (with a lot of effort) the metal support bar under my plate and resting against it from above. I had to add some rubber bumpers under the radio to the bracket to hold the radio at an angle so I could snap the bezel cover into place when all was said and done. The mount works fine despite the additional steps mentioned above. I've taken a photo and notes to remind me how to get it if I ever trade this radio for another as it will take a lot of work. But I think it will hold as the bracket is held fairly tightly on the metal rod under the torpedo at the rear and 4 clips at the front (2 on the side and 2 on the bottom) hold the assembly. For example, this kit has a bag, like a factory mount. I am not sure if I would buy it again. It always bothers me when the instructions don't match the car exactly, even though it seems to work anyway. I'll update my review if I run into trouble with it after a while.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • The list is long.
