Modification required

Great product for ford owners who want to use a double din. I installed the App radio 3 and had to modify the trim piece that came with kit to allow radio to open. The instructions were also vague and they didn't tell you how to detach the radio after it snaps into place. I am satisfied with this product overall but I'm also resourceful. Someone who isn't willing to stray from the instructions might have trouble installing this kit.

Good product for the job

It was easy for me to install. And the product fill up the space between the radio and the product was about 1/16 or 3/32 of an inch. A very good fit.

good kit

The kit fit easily into my 03 f-15. Took a little work, but once it fit. It looks really good.

1999 f150 dash kit

I had to do some minor modifications to my dash to make this dash kit fit, but it was a piece of cake just have to trim some of the plastic, the f150 was not made for a double in head unit, but this dash kit made it work great!!

Perfect

Came with my deck and with a little modification to the dash it fit right in.

Good company

Super fast shipping and product fits perfectly in the dash.

This is a must for for older Fords. My 2002 F150 worked great.

Great price

Item is a must to insure a proper instalation.

Good product.

The kit made it very easy to install the radio in my 2004 F-250. Looks great.

Works as expected

Fit was fine and works as expected.

Installation Pack

It was recommended that I buy this installation pack to fit my truck. While installing the stereo I had purchased, I realized I did not need this. But the cost of returning it made it not worth the effort. The kit did not help in the installation in my 2003 Ford F-250.

Great Value!

I'm happy!!!

Worked for me

With a few minor modifications, it did the job for me. I would buy it again if I needed another one, although I think it's a bit pricey.

Excellent product

The installation package was exactly what was needed. It made the installation quick and easy

It is good

I installed this in my truck and it works fine.

Kits that Sonic provides from Metra always seem to work the best

great value

very good product i like is to easy to install and look nice

good stuff

I bought this for my 2000 expedition. I install the stereo my self with the cover provided by this seller. I didnt use the side panels but just the front covers. Looks great.

no value

This did not fit my 2000 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer. Glad I didn't have to pay for it, it came free.

Good product

This product works good but for some reason doesn't wanna stay back all the way, wants to lean forward in the upper right corner. Besides that great product.

great value

Great and very cool have not did a install in over 15 years this was very quick and easy and I wear glasses the print was. Very clear

BUY ONE!

I highly recommend this product, if you have a 1997-2004 Ford F series pickup this thing works perfectly. This thing finishes off the new stereo perfectly, looks factory, even better! Pros - it works exactly like it is supposed to. Cons - None. Buy one!

A must for double DIN install

This is a MUST for an easy install of a Double DIN stereo. Fit perfectly in the 1998 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer.

The product works great it not only looks good but the performance is as well.

Didn't work for me

The 2004 f250 superduty is not a true double din its kinda a 1 and 3/4 din so if you want to mount a double din you will require some light modification. This product will not really help you much which is why I rated it so low but it may help for other applications
-------------------------------------------
Great Review - Reminder from Sonic:
Note: Major sub dash modifications are necessary to use this dash kit. You will need to trim the sub dash to gain suitable depth and height.

Frame

This frame fix right in the F150 2002 xLT, personally installed.

Perfect

Just what I needed came super fast and delivered on time thank you!

Decent kit but requires more mods than instructions say

Used this kit to install a double-din unit in an '01 Expedition. As the instructions and the product description noted, significant cutting/modification is required to the sub-dash. What I found was that, in addition to the indicated cuts, I also had to cut out a 3/16 section from the top of the radio hole and had to make notches in the dash cover panel for it to clear the trim ring. Not the fault of the kit - but know that you'll have more work than just what the instructions indicate. Additional work took maybe 10-15 minutes; not a big deal, just know that you'll have to do it.

Great product with great service! Will always get my car audio products from this site!

Perfect Fit

When I originally ordered my radio it was to come with a mounting frame. Yep it did but not one I could use in my truck. So I ordered this one. Wow what a difference. Removed 2 screws on truck and got some screws (6) from electronics place for mounts to attach to radio (they don't come with kit) and it fit perfect. Radio slid in and snapped into place, frame provided covered all the openings behind the panel what a match.

Clean Install

I will say that installing this kit required substantially more cutting of the dashboard on a 2001 F150 pickup than I had anticipated. The instructions are vague and I don't think that the installation diagram was drawn correctly. Despite all this the final fit and finish rivals a factory install. Despite the added labor, because the head unit is mounted very securely I feel this install methodology is superior to using the standard aftermarket birdcage.

Perfect Fit

Perfect fit for my Lincoln Navigator. Okay quality for the price. Good overall rating.
