So damn frustrated!!!!!!!!

Cant believe TOYOTA or anyone else dosent sell the surround/trim piece that holds the hazard/clock for a 2012/2013 radio.I might just end up selling the radio.I tried a METRA kit but after some toying with it the piece just dosent fit right.I guess ill just have to buy another radio that has it and sell this one.

 

Isn't it part of the face of the radio?

 

No it comes off..on the 2011 and below its part of the face.

 

what metra part did you use? worked just fine for me.

 

What Metra part and what Radio are you installing? Those kits can be a little finicky.

 

Im using the 2012 METRA kit but only the bottom part on the factory housing.It dosent line up or sit flush.

 

$32 99-8235chg Single DIN Dash Installation Kit For 2012 Toyota Tacoma Vehicles

99-8235chg is the metra kit that I used. If you are taking that plastic surround and putting it in a factory trim piece then there is a very good chance that it will not fit perfectly. I don't know what to tell you about ordering it from toyota as my guess is you can't buy it separately

 

Did u have to modify the piece in any way?

 

nope, but I also put in an aftermarket unit so I was using the metra dash not factory, but it should fit either way

 

Well the METRA kit piece dosent fit the factory trim so im proberly just gona sell it.
