Metra 99-5719 Dash Kit - Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good stuff

Bought one of these about a year ago for my 2002 Mercury Sable. The only complaint I have is that the air controls seem to have a mind of their own when starting the car. Sometimes it's where you left it, some times it's off, sometimes it sets itself to something random. Never changes while the car is on though, so I don't really mind. Other than that the kit is fantastic.

Oh, and I love how it comes with adapters for both single and double din HUs. They really put everything in this kit. Worth the money.

Overall it is a decent product. Its a bit pricy. Had to call manufacturer on how to hook up passenger ABS light, not in directions and wires should have been longer. You cannot troubleshoot the heater controls. .
The controls seem pretty easy to use. Only one color to dash lights it does not match factory color. They could have matched the color better because this product is only for the Ford Taurus or Mercury Sable.
Overall design seems good once you get use to controls. With a single deck mounted in it the plastic trim did not fit real well. I suppose with a double DIN that would probably change.
This summer the only way to get the AC to work fully was to turn it down all the way to 60 degrees. The heat side from what I'm seeing is the same way only in the opposite, all the way to 90 degrees. I'm still waiting to see how the controls work up here in NW N Dakota with the really cold weather and it does get really really cold here.
