Lot of work, but love the results!
Roy from Livingston, TX on 11/26/2024

The plastic seemed a little thinner than the original. I was afraid it was going break while putting it back together. I had to modify and trim a couple of tabs for the radio that I purchased to line up for the inner trim bezel. However, when I finished it, it looked professionally installed. I am very happy with the results.
Pros: Has a variety of pieces for options of your vehicle. All the hardware needed is included. Looks great when installed.
Cons: This requires time, patience and effort to install. If you are not a problem solver, or get frustrated when having to do things repeatedly to get it right, take it to a professional.

Pretty good
Reynaldo from Herman, NE on 7/16/2024
1999 Ford F-150
Kind of pricey for the thin plastic material but it gets the job done I guess.
Pros: The 4wd and air bag option are great.
Cons: Plastic is thin for the price.

Nice overall experience!
Russell from Bossier City, LA on 5/6/2024
2000 Ford F-150
Was a pretty easy install. I just needed to call once to ask about how much to cut out. I was sent a diagram that helped me with that. All the parts fit nicely and worked when I turn on the power. Very good sound and was mildly surprised with the phone. I didn't know the mic was in the face of the unit! That should be listed. The molding fit really nice too. I left it black and nice contrast to the grey interior.
Pros: Fitment and wiring were great as usual. Customer help helped me finish it.
Cons: Not really a con but the unit does take about 30 seconds to get the radio to start up but I am ok with that.

Fairly easy to install. You will need a rotary tool to remove the old 4x4 plastic piece to reuse in the new.

Gregory from Thomasville, NC on 11/22/2023
1999 Ford F-150
This package helped immensely. The fit was almost perfect. The best thing about it is that I didn't have to go and find a replacement, nor make a custom pc to fit my 1991 F150 for a touch screen to go in. Crutchfield gave me all the options to buy (or not to buy) to complete my install in the shortest time for me (I'm not a professional installation expert). I'm giving this 5 stars for the ease of using this with little trouble at all (in all honesty the trouble was probably all my fault lol, not a professional).
Pros: Easy to work with and install.
Cons: The only con is the overall price. When doing it on a budget you will have to balance between cost and ease of installation.

Randall from RACELAND, LA on 2/13/2023

This kit was easy to setup and preassemble, however that's where it stops. the directions on what to cut out and leave behind were vague at best. After talking with the crutchfield rep, and some trial and error. I found out what all had to be cut out, and what had to be smoothed over. it's a great fit and replacement. as well as painting the grills a matte black to blend it.

Nice Upgrade
Bryan from Reno, NV on 11/8/2022
1999 Ford F-150
Pleasantly surprised with the fit and finish of this dash kit in my 1999 F-150. Easy to assemble and looks great in the factory location. I painted the factory tan vents to match the kit as recommended by Metra. The required modification to the factory opening is straightforward and simple if you have a multi-tool. Wish I hadn't waited this long to convert to a double-din touch screen head unit!

Angel from White Bear Lake, MN on 9/26/2022
2001 Ford F-150
Dash kit was easy to put together and looks good. The low start rating is because there are no clip to actually hold it in. The sticks coming out are flat and really should have a lip to catch the dash clips and stay in. Honestly I am afraid if I slam on the gas the whole thing will fall out.
Pros: very nice looking
Cons: doesn't hold tightly in place
