DO NOT BUY FOR AUDI A4 B7

DO NOT BUY FOR AUDI A4 B7. It's a one and done bracket and you cannot remove it without tearing the dash apart or by breaking the bracket. The outer bezel does not fit once the radio is in either. Buy a Scosche AU2391B if you can find one.

Metra 99-9107B Dash Kit

Ignore all the people worried about never being able to take this out, I have a solution. It fits and looks good, no crazy panel gap like people are saying. What I did was cut all heads of the tabs off, 3 on each side. It still fits very snug and stays in no problem. Yet all you need to do is give the bottom a slight tug and pull it out to remove it. Cutting the tabs worked perfect for me, and my car is always locked and I don't see why someone would steal a $100 single din head unit. And they would never know you can just pull it out haha. So if your worried about it being locked in your dash forever, try this.

Eh

The main frame is perfect fit but the bezel to cover the gap doesn't fit/wont work so im very disappointed I bought everything Crutchfield said to in hopes of easy simple install and nothing has been easy or works like hoped it would hopefully i can find another frame that works

Awful fit, multiple mods needed

For my 2007 Audi A4, this is a terrible fitting mounting plate. Had to cut to fit a double din, the secondary trim plate fits very loosely, and ultimately it would not snap into the OEM location without further modification to the car. Then you can never get it out. Disatisified, bought scosche AU2391B which bolts into the console, trim plate that snaps seamlessly, and is removable should it need to be. Crutchfield why do you not sell this item?

Thanks to Caje's informative review, our Vehicle Integration Buyer, Darren, decided to look into carrying the Scosche dash kit for this vehicle. He's also checking in with Metra to see if an upgrade is on the way. Sorry for the troubles, Caje. Our Customer Service experts refunded Caje for the price of the kit.

Skip this one for B6 A4

Not good for the B6 A4... Ugly gaps around the face of the deck (double din). Trim piece rattles. Go for the Scosche AU2391B instead. One solid piece the consistent gap around the face of the deck. Easy to snap in and out for future expansion.

Audi A4 Kit

This kit is a piece of junk! Does not fit my 2007 Audi A4, even though I have the Symphony head unit. The clips on the kit do not line up with any notches in the dash, so it will not stay in. I spent over an hour on Crutchfield tech support and though the guy was helpful, no solution worked. I may have to cut notches in the dash with a Dremel tool for the tabs to grab onto. Add to the fact that if I ever get the kit installed it can never be removed. Not Happy At All!

Excellent fit and finish.

Good fit and finish to install a single din or double-din after market radio in a 2006 Audi A4 (B7) with Non-bose and No Navigation. Finish is painted matte black which matches the other soft-touch surfaces in the car perfectly. Kit does require some cutting and using a small file if you plan on using it for a Double-din radio. The ONLY drawback, is once the kit is snapped into place. There's NO way to remove the radio again without taking the entire dashboard apartment or destroying the kit. So if you plan on rewiring, adding another amp. connecting a rearward camera. Either plan on taking the entire front dash and console apart, or buying another metra kit

Blaupunkt San Antonio in Audi A4 B7

Kit looks good once installed, matches factory finishes nicely. Once snapped into place, there is no removing it without disassembling the entire dash, so make sure you have everything right, and then try to seat it. I had to modify the kit with silicone pads behind the fingers that engage the dash in order to give them enough tension to lock into place. This was after spending WAY too much time getting the radio to sit just right in the opening. What should have been the quickest and easiest part of the entire install was the most frustrating.

Not a good product

This is the only item i bought from Crutchfield that i am not happy with. The main piece does not stay in the dash and the plastic clips come undone when accelerating in the car and the radio comes out, had to put duct tape to hold it in. The trim ring bulges out also and does not have a good finished look.

Metra 99-9107B Dash Kit

I don't mind cutting pieces off to change it from single DIN to double DIN. I don't mind that the instructions are a bit sub-par. The finish matches OEM quite well. But why on earth would they design a kit that cannot be removed after install? Plenty of people move on to upgrade their setup after installing the radio, or make a few wiring tweaks or fixes. I spent over an hour removing dash panels and trying to squeeze my hand behind the radio because something came loose while sliding the radio in.

Crutchfield response on

Could have been a better design.

For me I hate cutting up a new product for it to fit. When you order a full hun radio and you get a 2 bin radio bezel that you have to cut, in my world that's not good business. The holes to screw the pieces into the radio did not line up at all and I think only one or two did

Crutchfield response on

Design flaw won't allow removal

Nice looking once it is installed, however the instructions leave something to be desired. It took a while for me to figure out how to attach the plastic side plates to the head unit. The major flaw is stated in a small paragraph at the end of the instructions : once the unit is installed, the dash will have to be taken apart to remove the unit. Terrible!!!! I drove around for a week with the unit not fully pushed in to make sure all the wiring was correct. Crutchfield has been pretty good over the years, but to knowingly sell something that is so poorly designed it cannot be removed is just plain wrong. They should get together with Metra and come up with a better design.

Only one shot at install

With several other kits to choose from on the market, this metra unit is the worst. Offering a multi-use install din unit would be a better value to allow for future upgrades to the stereoo

Crutchfield response on

Could be better in design

I liked the kit because it matched the trim and was an exact fit to the slot the OE radio was in. Only design flaw is that if you need to access the back of the radio after install, you have to remove dash assembly. If it was more like a traditional kit that had keys to slide in and pull the radio and kit out, it would be a great kit.

Crutchfield response on

Cheap junk that sort of works.

This is cheap plastic made as genericly sized as possible to fit as many cars as possible. These never fit perfectly and you better own a dremel or some files if you want to make it work. At least Crutchfield will just keep sending them to you if you destroy any in the install process, however I would prefer if someone just made more appropriately sized kits that just worked. Oh and this double din unit is the worst one yet. Once its installed you cant remove it. Which really really Sucks for people that use Crutchfield that are installing units themselves, because you know you'll have to go back in a few times. I figured out you can drill four small holes on the frame so that you can stick a wire and pop the clips open again, but you have to file down the clips first so that they're not too large (at least for my car) because you won't be able to get them in at all without doing so.

Excellent fit and finish

This Metra dash kit fit my Blaupunkt New Jersey 220 perfectly once I sawed out the cross bar (be sure to remove both metal frames from the stereo). Other users have commented that you will have to take the dash apart to remove the stereo once installed, but it would be easier to just drill holes in the face plate near the retention tabs (or just break the plate with a screwdriver) and buy a new faceplate kit.

Pain to get in

Fits okay once you wrench it into place, otherwise miserable. Odd setup, you hvae to cut it to make it work for a double din, it's just difficult to work with. Looks nice once you put a bunch of work into it.

Good in-dash kit

This kit perfectly matches the color of my 2006 Audi A4 dashboard and has a great finish look. However, I don't give it 5 start because of the fact that once installed, the only way to remove it involves removing the whole dashboard console.

A Servicable Solution

This mounting kit is remarkably simple and of reasonable quality. It was very easy to remove the center bar to enable installation of a Dual DIN radio in my son's 2004 Audi A4. The biggest issue I had with the solution is that you need to screw the mounting brackets onto the side of the radio. As a result, you will not be able to use the DIN tools to remove the radio in the future which sorta defeats the purpose of installing a radio which conforms to the DIN standard. I suspect I will know just how big a pain in the neck this will be if/when he blows out the fuse on the back of the radio. If you can see past this shortcoming, the solution is very stable. The radio slid in with little effort and was very secure.

Audi In-dash Receiver Kit

Color match is close and the fitment is good. Problem with this kit is that once it has been installed into the stock radio position, there is no easy way to remove it from the dash. The plastic side clips which secure the unit are completely inaccessible. Wish I had read the reviews prior to purchasing. Ended up having to purchase a separate pioneer specific mounting cage and will have to trim the plastic trim pieces from this kit and velcro the facing in place for coverage.

Sub-standard

Honestly, it's crap. The plastic is thin and flimsy. I had molding problems on one side and as a result it doesn't hook into the car correctly. That is, it pops out of the dash from time to time. You're better off spending extra and getting a different kit. The one sent by Crutchfield is not that easily removed IF it actually stayed mounted in the dash.

07 A4 double din kit

This is a very cheap kit, but it was free so can hardly complain there. The kit will snap into place and then can not be removed, this is definitely less than satisfactory for adding additional accessories later (ipod cord, sat radio, nav module, etc). As of yet I have not fully installed the receiver, because I will be adding some accessories to my radio. But it does seem like I might have difficulty getting the radio to sit in the opening properly using this kit. Also, you have to remove a center section if you are installing a double din receiver. To do this properly took some trial and error for how much plastic to remove.

Very easy to install but does not look as good in the dash as the factory head unit looks it needs tighter gaps.

Have questions for

Crutchfield response on

not as simple as it should be

First of all, a major step missing from the instructions is to remove the 'frame' from your aftermarket head unit!! yes it does what it says and once installed with the unit i purchased it looks great. that said, the instructions leave a great deal to be desired about what you take off, what you put where etc. for my application certain pieces were cut/snapped off but it's not clear which. Even the tech advisor from Crutchfield had a difficult time explaining to me and agreed the instructions are terrible.

Had trouble, but works

Had trouble getting it to lock into dash. Finally realized that I shouldn't use the cage that came with the stereo. Use the side brackets included with the kit even with a single DIN stereo and it should lock in fine. Don't like that special tools will be needed to remove in the future...

Crutchfield response on

Ok, not ideal

This product worked, but you would think that they could send a panel removal tool with it. Once installed, your aftermarket radio or nav system can not be removed without cutting the trim apart. A panel removal tool would be the only way to reuse the same kit.

Not All A4s Can Use This

While a lot of A4's have a Double DIN sized factory stereo, there are some that do not. Such as mine. If you have a configuration that has a Concert II radio, your AC controls and then a small tray underneath, this probably wont work. You need a single DIN kit. Crutchfield does not have in stock the trim kit for this type of application. Though when I called them back, they were extremely helpful in finding a trim kit that does work.

Cannot be removed once installed.

It looks very good. Fits well, was easy to install, and came free with my purchase of a new radio. Crutchfield also made this easy with plenty of good documentation for the DIYourselfer. Only problem I see is removal. Once your ddin radio is installed, it appears it can not be removed without ripping the kit apart. It snaps in in such a way it cannot be removed without removing significant interior components. What's more disturbing is the screws for these interior elements cannot be accessed with kit in place (Audi Avant A4 2005). This problem will become immediately apparent when you try to add a HD module, or Satellite feature, after installation. Be sure to take this into consideration when you make your purchase.
