Do-it-yourself skills required - electrician

Resounding comments about no installation instructions being included - the only "instructions" are the blurry jpg image and the two very short sentences of instructions above. After 6 fittings I found the right way to assemble the head unit and install it in the cage which took about 90 minutes. The final fit is secure, although my unit needs a larger surround sound (not the manufacturer's fault). There is no right to a size error - not a millimeter more.

Pros
  • Universal frame kit for stereo installation with two shaft 182 x 101mm radio head unit.
Cons
  • minorities

OK but not as per instructions

Basically the product is good. It fits and supports my stereo well, but the materials are pretty cheap and the trim ring is pretty flimsy and won't attach to almost anything unless the dimensions of the cutout are near perfect. However, my biggest complaint is that there were absolutely no instructions. The only information about the installation was a very low res photo from the add products page. I spent the better part of 2 hours setting up/installing it! You would think that a company…

Pros
  • This mounting frame will fit most aftermarket double din car stereos. It is designed to hold the stereo securely in the dash.
Cons
  • weight

No instructions but seems solid enough.

The device does not come with any instructions and the photos in the Amazon offer do not explain anything. There were no instructions in the packaging either. Their own website offers a user guide, but it only links to their main website and not a download. A+ EXTRONS. The trim ring is a bummer, it has a flimsy flimsy latch in the switches and no real indication of whether they should be snapped between the cage and radio or cage and dash. The only reason it gets 4 stars is that it was heavy…

Pros
  • This mounting frame fits a 103 mm high dashboard. Before purchasing, please check your vehicle dimensions to check compatibility.
Cons
  • No Automatic
