Surprisingly solid

This kit provides a surprisingly solid mounting for a single DIN head unit. Using the DIN radio provision and the metal sleeve provided with the radio, the sleeve was installed into the frame. The sleeve can be installed with a very tight fit by bending the metal tabs on the metal sleeve. You have to study the sleeve a bit to determine which tabs to bend as all sleeves are different. With the sleeve secured to the frame and pocket the assembly was surprisingly rigid. The full assembly then slid easily and precisely into the dashboard location with a very tight fit - no movement or rattling. This on a mid 90's Integra.

Poor instructions, mediocre quality

Definitely the worst installation instructions I've ever seen. I'm an experienced mechanic and still had to basically figure out the installation process by trial and error and looking really closely at the kit. It ultimately fit ok, but the quality of the plastics isn't great, especially compared to the high quality plastics used in Hondas.

Metra 99-7892 Dash Kit

Concisely worded instructions would be nice for those of us who do not install car stereos every day. The accompanying line drawings are difficult to read as the detail is poor. I would suggest upgrading the instruction manual to heavier white paper, not newsprint, and using black & white photos. I suspect it would have eliminated much trial and error on my install. The kit did work just fine in my '97 Accord, looks great better than factory.

This dash kit works

This dash kit is essentially the same as when I installed a JVC unit in 2009. It fits perfect mounted to the new stereo and then into the car. I had to trim of a couple of unneeded tabs but they broke off exactly where they were supposed to.

Cheap Plastic Garbage

Absolute cheap plastic crap. The instructions are useless. How do you describe the problem to someone over the phone. My Honda was originally mounted with solid metal brackets. Now I have to throw that solid craftsmanship away for this cheap plastic garbage? My stereo bounces because it's too heavy. Thanks for nothing. Maybe Crutchfield should offer more choices for the actual mounting part of the installation.

Metra 99-7892 Dash Kit

Overall it worked fine, but it was definitely the hardest part of the install to figure out. My first mistake was not realising that the first page of the manual was for a different kit, and that rather than being foreign language translations, the rest of the manual contained the instructions for the other kits, including this one. Fortunately I was too confused by the parts not matching up to make any of the permanent modifications before I realised my error. For my car, two small tabs had to be cut off. Easy enough if you have a small hacksaw or similar, but be aware that you'll probably need to cut some plastic. The cage from my Pioneer head unit didn't seem to have really great bendy tabs to hold it into the bracket, however in the end I got it quite stable. I hear some other brands can require a little more modification. I spent some minutes figuring out how it was meant to be installed in my particular car - the manual didn't go into great detail. I eventually figured it out but it took some experimenting. I was surprised and a little dismayed that there are no screws involved anywhere, it's all held in by those plastic tabs. It was actually surprising how solidly it seems to hold together considering, but I'll see how well those last in the desert heat. There's basically no option to actually secure the head unit to a part of the car with screws (like the factory unit is) unless you rig something up yourself.

Fitment issues

I have installed many car stereos in my lifetime using both Metra and Scosche dash kits, and from my experience Scosche makes better products. This particular Metra dash kit unfortunately did not fit well, the instructions are vague at best and getting a clean install on the first try was not possible for my vehicle. After cutting the small tabs per instructions you are left with a bezel that is loose, which also protrudes too far from the mounting surface. In short the install now looks amateur and the stereo can wiggle out on one side as the remaining tabs are not enough to hold the stereo securely.

Mounting kit review for Sony receiver

Plastic construction not nearly as robust as the factory radio mounts. Cleaver design, but the Counter-sunk screws included do not reach thru the support plates on the side of the radio. In addition, the universal drilled holes in these plates are NOT counter-sunk, so even if they were a bit longer to reach the threaded holes in the radio, they interfere with sliding the unit into place due to adding to the over-all width of the assembly. I am handy, so counter-sunk the holes myself, and everything fit into the dash as designed. (can't complain too much, since the nice people at Crutchfield's, gave me the mounting kit and the harness adapter included in the price of the receiver. And the 2-day free shipping was spot-on, so these guy's are really serious about customer service!!)

This is a low quality product

I used this with my stereo for a 1998 Acura Integra. The product came bent! The front part of the kit was curved so it was a pain to install. We blow-dried it to get it to straighten as we didn't want to deal with returning it but the quality was low. The material is a cheap plastic that feels like it can break if you don't handle it right. Breaking the clips off as instructed was a bit of a pain also.

Metra 99-7892 Dash Kit

This is a universal kit that fits multiple Honda/Acura vehicles. Because of this you are required to modify this kit for use in some models. For example, when installing a JVC KD-R870BT using this Metra 99-7892 Dash Kit in a 99 Acura CL, I had to cut several tabs off the faceplates. The directions are not very specific so be sure to pay close attention before removing these tabs. The big issue I have with this kit is the JVC Head Unit Faceplate will NOT fit once the final METRA faceplate is installed.

Not the best kit I've installed..

The instructions were not clear at all, and i ended up breaking tabs that didn't need to be broken, so the kit was loose in my dash. Luckily Crutchfield has great customer service (literally no wait time both times I called), and they sent me a replacement dash kit i received in 2 days. I broke only the side tabs this time and now the kit holds semi-firmly in the dash, but the base is not long enough to attach to the back where I would normally put the factory screws, so if someone wanted to, they could easily pull out the stereo with their hands and not much force.

Holds head unit well, but very tight fit in dash

This bracket was a little too big and a little too flimsy for my 98 Acura CL. I was able to make it work, but I had to lift pretty hard to get it to line up properly with the dash trim opening because the weight of the head unit pulled it down. Once I finally got it to stay in place correctly, the head unit's trim ring wouldn't stay in place like it used to. The bracket is obviously bending inward on both the top and bottom, proving that it either wasn't designed to necessarily fit Acuras or just wasn't measured well. It works, but it's not perfect. I know it's not cost effective to sell metal brackets, but I wish they had at least made it a few millimeters smaller so it would fit correctly.

Easy installation with clear instructions

Easy to install, this dash kit fit perfectly into my '94 Honda Accord LX. I was able to install a new Alpine CDE-143BT stereo. My only complaints are that 1)The material does feel a little chintzy, and 2)The kit should come with some additional mounting hardware for ISO type stereo units. All in all, installation only took about 20 minutes and it looks clean. It mounts the stereo into the dash securely.

Installed this on Acura Integra 94. This does fit after a few modifications. You'll need a saw and a pair of clippers. The bad part is you cant really lock it down to anything very well. Make sure to bring your stereo plate with you when you leave your car!

OK install kit

This installed pretty easily into my car... installation instructions were OK... they missed a few screws and some info that would have been useful, AND the pictures shown for how it actually attached to the car were completely wrong... but I figured it out easily, and it did work. The plastic's not straight (it's kinda bowed) so it's very clear that it's not OEM and sorta sticks out like a sore thumb and makes my aftermarket deck look cheap or incorrectly installed (This was not my fault... it was warped before I even installed it). HOWEVER, it works and it was free, so I'm not complaining.

I was very impressed with this dash kit!!! The directions were very easy, but it was basically common sense to install. I just checked the directions to see if i did it right. It fit perfectly, all i had to do was break off to tabs because i didn't need them for my car. (95 Accord)

Installed this in my 95 4dr Integra GSR There are 2 tabs on each side that clip into place. The instructions say to clip off the to tabs on the top side. I elected not to initially because it didn't make sense too. but the fitment was shoddy. Decided to finally clip off those 2 top tabs as per instructions and it snapped in like an OEM unit!

Not 100% fitment, but still good enough

I purchased this for my Accord that had a radio but not receiver kit. The kit was very easy to assemble and install. The only problem was that there is no ISO mounting screws to properly secure the head unit against theft, but thats Hondas fault not this install kit. My only problem was the fitment was 8/10 and the receiver itself was pointing to the passenger side. I removed and reinstalled and I couldnt get it to point straight out. It wasnt too big of a deal but still annoying at times.

3 stars, would try a different kit next time

The fitment of the product was a C+ at best. The opening in kit for the deck was actually slightly ovaled out in that it bowed outwards in the middle. This allows the deck's mounting bracket to be seen slightly when the receiver is in the slot with the trim ring. If i ever take it out for some reason, i'll paint the mounting pocket/bracket black so it is less noticeable. I also didnt like how the kit with the deck installed "slumped forward" and did not support its own weight when mounted to the car in its stock location with the stock two bolts. the install kit uses the frame of center console to support the front edge of the deck and hold it upright. I was not a fan of this. It needs to come with a sturdier bracket. Also, the directions for disassemble of the car missed a critical screw thats buried in the center console. Thankfully I happen to have done some work back there before and knew of the screw and didnt snap the powel/tang/screw off but for someone new to this car, they have a 99% chance of doing so. The other kit available through crutchfield got such low reviews that i tried this one. In the future ill pay a few dollars for a better fitting, heavier built installation kit

Gets the job done...well!

I used this to install a "hand-me-down" Sony MEX-1HD into my girlfriend's '97 Accord LX. Getting the old stereo out was more difficult than popping in the new one with the dash kit. The fit is flawless. At first I had a gap between the bottom of the pocket and the dash faceplate, but then I lifted up on the pocket and pushed the bottom lip in simultaneously and everything snapped into place perfectly. Looks great with the rest of the trim. I had no issues with the supplied instructions, just had to follow a car-specific set of instructions first before moving on to the general installation directions. Took me just over an hour to start and finish the job with a long dinner break in the middle, so I'd say 40 minutes tops as an absolute beginner working fairly slow.

Fits with a bit of a gap

Installation was easy using a Sony CDX-GT565UP in a 5th Generation Accord EX Coupe. Like others have said, if you are using a DIN, bend the tabs on the sleeve, it does make for a tighter fit. The only problem is that on the right side of the kit, there is a small gap between the console and the kit that is not present on the left side... Not noticeable unless you look closely though.

Worked Great in 94 accord

This worked great in a 94 accord. I was skeptical at first that nothing would be there to support the front of the radio but found uot that the black full length factory bezel takes care of the front just fine. The only thing I wish the kit had included was the 2 screws that allow the attachment of the kit's rear support to the factory bracket in the bottom of the radio opening. If you are removing an existing radio you would already have these screws. A trip to the hardware store for 2 M5.8 x16 mm screws and 2 M6 washers was what I need to complete the install.

fits, but looks kind of bad

The receiver kit has a different finish than the black plastic in by dash board; it's more textured and darker, so it sticks out a bit. Also, it's not completely flush with the dashboard, so I can see some of the top of my silver radio, between the receiver and the dashboard.
