Review on 🚗 DKMUS Car Stereo Dash Radio Fascia Kit for 2006-2010 Hyundai Elantra/Avante (HD) - Double Din Installation Trim Panel Frame (Grey) by David Boone

If you are replacing your 2007-2010 Hyundai Elantra Head Unit with a 2DIN Head Unit and don't want to cut out the factory radio bezel from the car, this is your best choice. I wanted to upgrade to an Android Auto/Apple Car gaming device with all the new tech, but I want to keep the OEM look and feel with a completely clean install. The best option I've found is this one. The equipment is 97% ex works, there are only negative differences that are not noticeable to the untrained eye. For example, the color isn't 100% the same gray as the factory, this faceplate is more of an olive drab than a gray. The curve at the top doesn't match the top compartment 100% and the bottom edge is just a millimeter shorter. The hole for the kill switch is not the perfect size and needs some filing to fit the switch. Let's be clear this is not a Hyundai OEM part, this is a Chinese aftermarket product that replicates the original panel and then creates an open space for a double din aftermarket radio to be installed. Now you need to remove the air vents, kill button, clock/airbag display and mounting clips from the original fairing on this new fairing. As for the plastic clips you can see on the board, they are useless. The secondary radio installation should be done by a professional or someone who really knows what they are doing. Factory radio metal mounts will not work with an aftermarket radio unless you have modified it. The factory position of the radio will not match the new bezel hole and you will need to make or heavily modify the standard brackets to achieve the correct position for the aftermarket radio fused to the bezel. I am a professional installer and it took me over 4 hours to modify the brackets and shape them so that the radio was perfectly centered and aligned with the new faceplate. I will say that this is the only and best aftermarket option that allows you to keep a clean OEM interior and screen/radio that looks like a new car. Please see the attached photos which show the color difference as well as the fit and finish of the final installation.
