Review on πŸš— Metra Dash Kit for Toyota MultiKitTurbo 1984-2004 - Model 99-8101 by Reggie Kern

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Absolutely not suitable 84-88 4Runner, despite the instructions.

This kit gets 2 stars just because it fits the first generation 4Runner (1984-1988) but only because I have the tools to install it. The instructions are pretty clear, but the brackets require bigger modifications than the instructions state, and I also have to cut into my car's trim to fit. The area circled in green used to have plastic, but it contaminated the mount so it had to be cut out. The area circled in red cannot be cut due to the screw, so it is not suitable for the first generation of 4runners. The screws are approximately 4mm wider from edge to edge and since the two mounting holes are not offset they meet the radio mount in the car. When I'm done, it will be installed in 4Runner, but it is not universal and absolutely not suitable for the first generation of 4Runner without modification.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • No cannon
