Exactly what we needed and looks great

My husband said this was one of the best kits he has ever installed in terms of ease of use. I've seen some people complain about the quality of the kit but we have no complaints. The plastic was just as strong if not more durable than any cheap kit we've ever gotten from Wal-Mart/Best Buy. What's great is that it looks pretty good when the radio is on. Not quite at factory level, but really good.

Pros
  • Radio Accessory
Cons
  • No paint required

Cheap plastic junk, but no alternative

This kit is rubbish. Bought as a replacement for a unit I had installed a few years ago. I drive my SC less than 5000 miles a year. The old Metra kit broke in four different places. Metra will fundamentally overhaul this kit. For the record, I got a new set and threw away the side brackets. I used a trim/pocket paired with a pair of junkyard radio mounts to create a mounting structure that should really last.

Pros
  • Electrical
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Study measurements!

Terrible. Cheap plastic and no clear instructions. Says it's basically plug and play, but it's not. Searched the internet for reviews and guides on how to install on a DIN for SC300 and this is essentially the only option in kit form. If you really need a good set of instruments, you have to order them. CM. Look at the dimensions of the one radio you are buying because I have already bought two just for this kit and both will not fit. Well it's a joke. Now I have to start another return. Metra…
