Once you lay out the parts for this, the display unit and the harness, it becomes fairly clear how to install. Only had to call Crutchfield customer support once! As usual they were 100% the best.

This was the perfect fit for my dash. After moving the hazard lights button and the air vents to the trim piece you can't tell it's not factory. I am very pleased with the look. My head unit fits so good with this. I went with the JVC KW-M865BW.

Verified employee review (What's this?)

I had to change out the face plate to bronze, and a couple of the screws stripped out. This was after i finally got the new bezel seated properly. It took a bit to get it to "snap down". Also the kit came with an antenna adapter, so I don't know why Crutchfield said I needed another one? Wasted money. There were a few steps that were very confusing, and it took quite a bit of web searching and youtube to figure it out. Very frustrating.

Pros: It did fit form and function and color...

Cons: Changing out the bezel. Some missing/confusing details in the directions.

This kit is fantastic and looks like it was made for my car. Mounted to a 2016 Jeep Cherokee. The fit was perfect and super easy to install with the new head unit. There were all plenty of online resources from iData and Crutchfield to support with the installation.

I ended up buying this from a different site because it was out of stock at the time I needed it. But it fits perfectly and came with all the parts I needed to install my Kenwood headunit.

Pros: Comes with all parts you need for my 2018 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk.

Cons: none

Seamless transition for my 2018 Jeep Cherokee-yes it's pricey but maintains the factory look and enables an aftermarket upgrade

Pros: Looks like it was always there upon installation

Cons: It's pricey but that's okay

Verified employee review (What's this?)

Perfect fit and finish! Looks like it's been in my 2017 Cherokee Sport since day one! I bought a headunit with a motorized faceplate, so I did need to do a little sanding at the bottom of the opening to allow for this to swing, but it only took me 2 seconds with a Dremel. If you're looking to get a factory look for your Cherokee, this is the kit for you.

Perfect fit for double din.. Just what I needed

Mark from Oswego, NY on 6/21/2017

2014 Jeep Cherokee

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

I have a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Latitude with the basic radio model: VP2. I needed this kit to be able to install my 7" Kenwood double din into the dash. The kit comes with 2 trims in silver & gold, replacement usb/aux unit and the CH3 harness. The bezel looks just like factory and installation was easy. Keep in mind you will still need to purchase the Maestro RR to connect to the harness. On another note: Crutchfield is the only place I would ever order car audio from. Their customer support is top notch. These past few weeks I spent some time on the phone with their support and keep in mind I ask millions of questions.. I always felt like top priority, never rushed. Kudos to the people that helped me along.

Pros: It was a perfect fit. Well packaged. Excellent quality. Easy installation.

Cons: Nothing with this product or Crutchfield support. Wife seen the bill but little does she know I like sleeping on the couch!
