Overall, I like this dash kit. Although it is not a perfect color match, neither was the stock one that it replaced. The reason I did not give it 5 stars is the quality of the brackets and instructions. It took me a few minutes just to figure out how to "snap" on the support plastic brackets. They didn't really snap and stay on and easily fell off when moving it around, so it was a pain. I also had to figure out that the Boss stereo I ordered came preassembled with a finishing trim that had to be removed so I could use the trim from this dash unit. The trim was really thin and didn't hold shape very well, so it took a bit to get it not to bow when everything was install. I also had to use caution when tightening the bolts on those plastic brackets because I imagine those could easily have broken if tightened too much. I am pleased with the install and looks.

Pros: Nice look

Cons: Cheap, plastic brackets

Received kit in a prompt time but had 2 left side brackets. Notified Crutchfield. Sent replacement kit promptly. It also had 2 left side brackets.(no right side). I am currently waiting for 3rd set of brackets. Probably a vendor error. Crutchfield has been very helpful in resolving my problem.

Crutchfield customer from Pensacola, FL on 1/6/2021

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Did not match the color or texture of my dash. The radio had a small gap around the trim ring. Ordered the Metra kit which matched my dash perfectly and made the install look like it was from the factory. Was worth it to me to pay the extra twenty or so to have a more professional install. The Scosche worked but just didn't look as nice as the Metra

The grey doesn't really match. It to dark, and the the plastic mounts put the radio to far back. I ended up buying a different mounting system that allowed me to use oem mounting.

Perfect Dash Kit

This dash kit works beautifully. I highly recommend it over the Metra dash kit. Do yourself a favor and spend the couple extra dollars and get this one instead.

Pros: Easy install. Uses original factory clips.

Cons: None

I read several reviews which pointed me to the Scosche versus the others and it was a slam dunk when you read reviews, however I was disappointed in the flimsy quality of the product. The brackets supplied were barely usable and even more flimsy. What ever happened to quality?

Pros: fit well

Cons: flimsy product

Looks good, a bit different tone on the gray than my old more dimpled one. Doesn't stand out, holds the head units. Bezel fits kind of weird in opening, slightly too large so it bends. Very small detail once its all installed however.

Easy installation a very close match to stock dash. I'm very particular about the look even in a 10 year old truck and I have no complaints except for that it doesn't have the dimpled finish like the OEM dash.

Pros: Easy installation Near perfect match to OEM

Cons: Plastic brackets

Poor QC from the manufacturer

John from Cumming, GA on 5/11/2020

2007 Toyota Tacoma

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

It came missing the instructions and with two left brackets. Not sure how this missed QC but pretty sure I'm never ordering a Scosche product again.

Pros: The Faceplate looks nice

Cons: All Plastic design for the brackets doesn't inspire any confidence for installation. I ended up reusing the factory brackets as the instructions did not include both left and right plastic brackets. Now the finish plate doesn't fit.

The Scosche frame kit fit perfectly and match my truck's dash well. I would have rather had metal rails as the plastic was a little flimsy. Also locking the plastic rails to the frame never really seem to click in place. Installed and cosmetically, it looks very nice though.

Pros: Fit perfectly and match my truck's dash well (color & contour).

Cons: The plastic rails are flimsy.

Everything fit perfect. From the fit into the dash to the support bolts to the emergency flasher/clock it was perfect. I would advise anyone to use the Scosche kit for a Taco. The color (gray) wasn't a perfect match to the original BUT it looks better than the original when installed and may even fit more secure and tighter than the original.

5 stars for the Face Plate and Trim piece, look almost like Factory! Gave it 3 Stars for the FLIMSY mounting brackets that are supplied. Receiver WOBBLED like it was on Jell-o i threw them in the trash and used the FACTORY BRACKETS! They worked Great.

Pros: Face plate and Trim very nice.

Cons: Flimsy mounting brackets. TRASH

Makes the head unit vertical and very deeply recessed below the dash surface. Too deep for easy touchscreen access and comfortable wide angle viewing. I ended up not using it for these reasons.

Fits almost perfect. Mounting supports seem pretty flimsy but when everything is mounted it feels fairly solid. Color is darn near close, but my truck (2006 Tacoma) is 12 years old too so didn't expect a perfect match. Edges on dash kit are fairly sharp so they don't quite match with the rest of the dash but again its an older truck. Overall I am please with the kit and looks good with my new Sony stereo.

There are two different dash kits, this one and the one from, I believe Metra? The other is much better than this one. Wish Crutchfield would've given me the option of which one I wanted.

Pros: It fits.

Cons: Doesn't blend in quite as well as the other manufacturer model. The bezel that sounds the head unit doesn't seat well and could easily come out.

Solid Dash Kit

Brian from Aurora, CO on 12/6/2017

2006 Toyota Tacoma

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Good product and it is easy to install. The plastic tabs that attach to this sides are difficult to attach at first and they feel flimsy when you get ready to put the head unit in the dash. Once the head unit was installed it seems more solid but the face of my Kenwood Excelon DDX593 seems sunk in and the small round volume knob is difficult to grab and make quick adjustments especially now that it's cold and I've been wearing gloves in the morning. Fortunately my 2006 Tacoma also has steering wheel controls for volume and with the adapter I got from Crutchfield works great. Overall it will get the job done and you don't have a lot of options when it comes to dash kits.

Pros: Easy instructions, fits without any modification, fairly easy to install

Cons: Flimsy plastic seems stressed when using a double din head unit, tabs that connect to the sides were difficult to get in place initially, silver color doesn't match the texture of the Toyota dash surrounding it
