Metra 95-1005 Dash Kit

It needs about another 1/8 inch to be perfect with my setup. I was able to make it work but with the dash of my 2004 Kia Sedona it needed a little more length to fit flush with the dash. I used a little electrical tape to hold the front on the radio during installation. Otherwise it is solidly installed and secure.

Decent fit, be careful trimming the tabs

I've used several Metra dash kits over the years with good success. This one for a 2005 Kia Spectra was not my favorite. The instructions are vague when determine where to trim which tabs (this is a multi-model multi-year kit so trimming is required). I managed to mess up the side plates the first time and had to replace them. Once properly trimmed and installed the fit was decent in the dash but not great. The Spectra dash is sloped at the radio and the kit does not match that slope. So the bottom of the radio is sunken in about 3/16" and a small gap is visible. The mount is solid and the radio slid right into place. I was just bummed about the gap.

It works, but there are not proper instructions.

After some trial and error, I discovered that the face trim plate will not fit when you put the factory trim back on, so I did not install it and just used the side plates to hold the radio in place. There is a bit of a gap around the radio, but doesn't look too bad.

Good fit, requires trimming

Fits great in my 05 Sorento LX. Mounts the radio securely and fits the dash opening well. The brackets attach directly to the radio housing with the screws supplied with the radio, they are not included in this kit. You will need a small saw or Dremel to trim off the unused tabs prior to installation. This does not work with EX trucks or LX trucks with sport package. If you have black headlight housings and tube side steps, you probably have the sport package, which uses the EX dash.

wrong kit,

This kit does not fit correctly in the 2006 Kia Spectra. The kit leaves a gap at the bottom of the radio and there is no way to correct it. This kit faces straight down vertically causing a gap. the center bezel is in a vertical angel. However, the kit that should fit correctly is the Metra 95-7318 Dash Kit. It reads " Does not fit" but the Metra website reads it does fit. I will give it a try, then review when installed.

Does not fit

Does not fit. Even called support and they argued with me saying that it fits. I have installed over 40 head units in my life and never have I had one made for a vehicle that did not fit. seems like many others have the same issue

Does not fit 2005 Spectra SX

2005 Kia Spectra SX has the same dash as the Spectra 5. This doesn't work. I had to reorder. Crutchfield took care of it and sent me out another

Metra Kia Kit

Works, but requires extensive modification of bracket for use (cutting, filing). These are not break-off plastic pieces nor easily cut; you will need a good coping saw (or similar) and patience to modify the bracket for your vehicle. Instructions inaccurate for Kia Spectra (states not to secure radio to vehicle!).

ABS plastic is tough, and making the modifications that are sometimes required can be a challenge. The instructions included with the mounting kit suggest "pressure fitting" the kit and stereo into place, which means it should be a tight fit, without the need for screws. Our MasterSheet instructions are a bit more clear and do indeed suggest securing the new stereo with screws. Both ways should work, but situations like this can be confusing. Fortunately, our Tech Support team is standing by, ready to help our customers with situations like this.

It was pretty easy setting this one up and the only issue was taking the plastic pieces off to fit it on my car.

It works....BUT

These are one of those "one size fits too many" things that get the job done but they are just plastic parts that fit together and in my case I had to break off most of the mounting tabs that didn't apply to this vehicle.
