by Robert Ferency-Viars

Want to protect the expensive in-dash receiver you installed in your boat? Metra's white universal marine cover offers a hinged tinted window that shields any single-DIN (or 2-shaft) radio from sun, salt, and spray. This rugged cover's also a great option for Jeep or convertible owners.

Details:
  • white plastic cover with hinged tinted window
  • spring-loaded latch
  • heavy-duty hinges
  • foam and rubber gaskets protect receiver from water
  • tabs hold 2-shaft radios or can be removed for DIN-style radios
  • 30-day warranty

Features

Overview: The Universal water-resistant radio cover protects your car stereo receiver in marine applications (or open off-road vehicles). The kit allows you to install most DIN or 2-shaft receivers. No special tools are required to install the cover.

Note: Installing a DIN receiver requires cutting the shaft cups from the frame.

Hinged Cover: The kit features an Accu-view tinted hinged cover with a spring-loaded latch. The heavy-duty hinged cover is supported by dual springs which support the cover while it's open.

Water Resistance: The kit is equipped with a foam gasket to protect the receiver from water seeping in from around the frame. Also, the outer frame has a rubber ring gasket around the receiver opening to protect the face plate from water entering from around the closed cover.

Dimensions: The cover has the following dimensions:

  • Outer Dimensions: W=8.948", H=4.206", D=1.909" (D=4.172" with cover open)
  • Internal Cover Dimensions: W=7.5" H=2.36" (maximum allowable space for receiver's trim ring)
  • Internal Depth: 1.465" (maximum receiver nose depth allowable)
  • Sleeve Opening: W=7.17" H=2.08" (allowable space for receiver's DIN sleeve or chassis--some slight filing to kit opening may be required)

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
The spring loaded cover makes no attempt to stay open, apparently a defective product. I returned it and will try something else.

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
 
Looks nice. The Metra's big, rounded corners didn't cover the entire cutout of my dash.
Pros:
Looks well built.
Cons:
Didn't fit my application.

Helps, not a cure for wet use in a Jeep

Written By Paul, Maryland on Saturday, January 10, 2009
 
Crutchfield specifically lists this as a way to protect a radio in your Jeep. This certainly helps protect the faceplate, IF you have no issues with dash interference. But in my TJ, water reaches the back and top of the radio area through the dash. This is NOT an alternative to a marine rated head unit in a Jeep you really do get WET, but it could be the final piece in keeping a marine rated radio dry in truly wet use of your Jeep. By itself, it will NOT be enough to keep a non-marine head unit from shorting out when spashing through the wet stuff with the top off.

Take note, though, marine rated head units tend to be water resistant, not waterproof; you can't submerge them.
