Metra or Scosche double din ???

Tried rattle can plastic and vinyl paint and it had a weird reaction and cracked. Had a body shop spray it with auto paint and it's holding up well.

 

Good on you. I never liked the textured silver radio surround. It threw too much glare at me so I opted for the Metra black to defeat that. Also thinking of doing a matte black hood decal around the scoop for the same reason.

 

Where do you buy the Metra kit? I see the Scosche kit everywhere but can only find the metra kit in black.

 

Here's the black version:

Here's the silver version that matches the stock color (even though they call it gray):

The picture is blurry.. so it doesn't look textured. But it is the textured metra. It fits good and doesn't rattle, and i have subs that rattle the entire car like crazy.

And that is the same headunit that you have..

 

I have a double din JVC Nav unit and I installed the Metra. The texture looks good IMO and the quality is top notch. I owned a Car Stereo shop for three years and thats the Only kits I sold.( Metra) Great company

 

Heres a pic....

 

Thanks for the links!

I ordered my Pioneer AVIC z120bt through crutchfield so i ordered the dash kit from them too. It doesnt say that it is "Metra" but it is has the same part number. I hope it is the same. Here's the link....

Oh yeah.......and Crutchfield matched Sonic Electronix price on the Pioneer unit, ipod cable and steering wheel control interface too. Got everything for $1078. Saved over $300 off of Crutchfield's original price and I will be getting a $100 rebate.

 

WOW...I just got an estimate on how much it will cost to install the head unit and steering wheel interface..........

........$468!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this a rip?

 

Do you have a link for the $100 rebate? Thought that expired 12/31, did they start again?

 

I guess they restarted it. For the period 1/1/2011 - 3/31/2011.

You can find the link to the rebate here VVVVV under special offers
