Nice looking unit, instructions need help
Crutchfield customer from Apple Valley, CA on 9/26/2021
2010 Ford Taurus
Metra needs to hire Crutchfield to write their installation instructions. Crutchfield has pictures with arrows and step by step instructions that make it easy and fun. Metra's instructions are vague, confusing and sometimes incorrect. The dash pieces are high quality. It made the dash look much more modern with a nice quality touch screen to control the heating and air conditioning.
Pros: Big improvement over the OEM dash. Simplified operation of the heating and air conditioning.
Cons: Installation instructions are horrible.

The Metra Kit is fantastic - 5 stars
Crutchfield customer from Reidsville, NC on 4/5/2019

Please note the actual Metra deash kit is 5 stars. It looks great and blends well with the OEM dash. We bought this along with a new Kenwood deck and all of the recommeded wiring harnesses. My son and I worked diligently for hours and we could not get the unit to power up. I ended up calling it to avoid further frustration. I rented a car and dropped mine off at an installer. They were on the phone hours reprogramming the unit and got it installed by next morning. I paid more to get great equipment from Crutchfield and must say I am disappointed. It costed me another $200 to get it installed plus the car rental.
Pros: beautiful and matches factory
Cons: unit was not programmed - not ready to be installed
