Review on ๐Ÿ”ง Enhanced Metra 95-7863 Honda Element Double DIN Kit for 2003 and beyond by Brett Islam

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Perfect fit for the 2003 Honda Element!

I have previously ordered another double din kit because Revane said it would not fit my car. However if you are replacing a Honda Element 03-07 head unit then this kit is for you. The plastic is a bit flimsy compared to the metal "ears" of the factory radio. In fact, you can be more adventurous than me and find out how to use genuine parts. I hooked it up along with the stereo I bought and the radio was installed within 20 minutes. Two (very small) caveats though: 1) The new frame that comes with the kit is AWESOME! Stiffer and more durable than the old one. But you must remove the metal clips from the old bezel before throwing it away. This is very important as these metal brackets are not easy to find. 2) Also use the original screws from the factory system. The ones that come with your new radio probably won't be as long due to the extra thickness of the plastic grommets. In addition, they are easy to connect. Thanks Metra for pointing me in the right direction. Revain - You need to review your installation requirements.
