Description


Metra brand icon

Authorized dealer

This stereo installation kit has been engineered to help you install a 2” tall (Single-DIN) aftermarket radio into the original vehicle dashboard. This dash kit makes radio replacement easier and comes with a pocket that is installed below the 2” radio to fill the extra space in the radio opening, which can be used for storage. The dash kit is painted scratch-resistant matte black to match the original look and feel of the vehicle’s dashboard. Modifications to the factory radio cavity are required for this installation and instructions are included. Installing an aftermarket radio can upgrade the sound quality and provide additional features the original factory radio couldn’t offer but requires this dash kit to make it fit.

Product Features:

  • Allows for installation of an aftermarket Single-Din car stereo
  • Compatible with select 2013-2022 vehicles from Ram, Jeep, Chrysler
  • Made from the highest quality ABS plastic for an original factory-like fit and finish
  • Includes brackets and hardware parts needed with detailed installation instructions
  • Painted scratch-resistant matte black
  • *Sub-dash modifications required*
  • Authorized Internet Dealer
  • 1-year Manufacturer's Warranty

Kit Includes:

  1. Radio housing
  2. Brackets
  3. Pocket
  4. (4) #8 x 3/8” Phillips screws
  5. Step by step instructions

Metra 99-6518B

This product was purchased to upgrade my stock radio to an aftermarket single din Pioneer radio. The kit comes with a pocket for remotes or your cell phone to use. The parts are made durable and fits the double din cut out after cutting out a metal bar that held the original stereo in. Overall, the Metra 99-6518B is a clean look for your Dodge Ram trucks.
