Holds the head unit in place,and the small pocket below is a great place for the bluetooth microphone. Looks like crap in my car,big gap around the unit,and you better have some installation experience, instructions are useless.

This kit works with several different install methods, so the extra parts caused some confusion at first. But reading the directions carefully helped narrow down the specifics to my installation. Once I had that figured out, the install went fast and it looks pretty good.

Holds Receiver

Looks pretty much like the illustration, but doesn't have the odd center post that's pictured. The snap-in bezel doesn't look as good as what's pictured, although it snaps in easily and securely. Decent quality plastic, holes line up appropriately, side clip receiver adapters are 'good enough' for my light radio. I had to dig around in the toolbox to find a couple metric screws to attach them. Tray is a bonus for tossing the phone in.

This product just does not live up to my standards. I wish it clicked together more securely and was built better. I ended up using a lot of Tesa tape to make the fit a little tighter and I am still a little concerned when 4wheeling, that it may rattle out. Time will tell, but I would gladly spend a little more for a quality item. All that being said, it is an easy install. It fits together as intended and does the job.

May need some minor tweaking

Purchased to install a Kenwood 898 in a 2016 Grand Caravan. You will end up with a new glovebox/pocket under the head unit that you didn't have with the factory radio. I needed to buy 4.5MM flathead screws to attach the side brackets (different head units may requires different size screws). There are clips on each of the side brackets that hold the unit and faceplate in and those clips tend to flex and can allow the unit to detach. I corrected the problem by sticking small adhesive felt furniture pads to the inside of the clips which gave the extra support to keep them pushed out while still allowing enough give to push a toothpick in the slot to detach them. I also had to use a small file to enlarge one of the holes in the back of the glovebox/pocket to allow my rear USB cable to pass through. Looks good in spite of the loose tolerances but the Kenwood still feels somewhat loose and sloppy.

It fits!

Fits close to perfect. It would be nice if the design and tolerances were a bit tighter. The finish is also a bit older than the design of some of the more modern radios.

Simple to use and easy to modify.

When used as intended this is a direct slide-in that is very simple to install. With a little Dremel work it can be modified and flipped so that the stereo is below the cubby hole instead of above. You have to grind off a couple of guide posts and open up the clip holes on the sides, but this suited my needs much better. When used with a flip-out video screen it provides better clearance for the screen to open when the stereo is on the bottom.

Radio will not stay in adapter

The opening is uneven and too large leaving open gaps around the head unit. The plastic is thin and bends significantly under the weight of the Alpine 149-BT receiver. In addition to poor visual appearance, the receiver will not stay in the unit. any motion or force at all and the receiver slides out of the adapter rendering it completely useless.

Storage room

The fit was good but the extra storage space under the radio was GREAT!!!! It will hold two Samsung Note 5 phones while charging with room left over. The radio does set back in the dash a little but not to hard to manage removing the face of the unit.

Not great, should have used a double DIN radio to avoid this product

I received this dash kit as I wanted to install a single-DIN Kenwood KDC-X599 head unit, which is the same unit I have installed in my 2006 Wrangler. I also liked the idea of the storage area under the head unit since the storage space in my 2012 Patriot is somewhat lacking. Unfortunately the fit and finish of this dash kit leaves a lot to be desired. As other reviewers have noted, the plastic is too thin in areas and warps/deforms particularly under the head unit. More importantly, it just does not have a factory fit/finish. The radio is fairly deeply recessed into the kit, which gives it a "not really made for this vehicle" feel. The deep recess also makes getting at the faceplate removal button a bit of a challenge - not huge, but still annoying. Really disappointed with the look of this unit in the dash, wishing I had gone with a double-DIN head unit now.

Another perfect fit

I like Metra products. They make sure that the finished installation looks like it belonged there. Their attention to matching the factory look and finish is great. And of course they include all the necessary pieces for varying equipment installations.

Does what it's supposed to by filling in that enormous hole in the dash left by the oversized factory radio. I would happily pay double the cost of it for a better fit & finish.

Works as advertised

The instructions were a little off for the Jeep installation. The instructions had me removing a bracket inside the dash. Fortunately I had done some prior research and I knew that the bracket only had to be removed for a double din unit. Other than that the finished product looks great.

Cheaply made/Horrible fit

Let me start by saying that I am very picky about how my vehicle looks as well as how the radio sounds (Dodge Nitro). I have been designing and installing my own vehicle sound systems for the last 25 years. The product might be just fine for someone less picky, but not me. This kit is cheaply made and, to me, that equals incredibly ugly. The small pocket under the radio mount warps due to the plastic being too thin. The bolt on mounting clips do not stay "clipped" in place. If you try using the radio mounting sleeve with the kit trim ring there are huge gaps in the fit allowing you to see into your dash. If you use the radio trim ring, those gaps are even more obvious. If you do manage to get the radio in, you just about have to hammer the dash bezel back in place and then it feels like you will break it pulling it back out. Didn't like this product at all. I'm just going to put my plain old factory radio back in because at least it fits properly and looks nice. Sending both the radio I bought and the kit back.
