Metra 95-7801 Double-DIN Stereo Installation Dash Kit Fits Select 1988-2006 Acura/Honda/Isuzu Vehicles

I only used the frame, the rectangle piece that would outline the radio, to install a double din radio in my 2000 civic ex. The frame fit great but I didn’t test any of the other plastic parts to see if they fit because my radio was short and didn’t require the other pieces. Be careful not to cut off the wrong tabs, follow the directions and look at your radio to be sure. My 7 inch screen didn’t fit in the frame so I had to sand it down, a lot. I don’t know if 7” is the standard radio size though. Hope this helps

I purchased this trim kit for my 2004 Honda CR-V and the new Joyspring double din stereo I purchased on Amazon. It fits perfectly, but takes a while to put together. Two important assembly tips for you. 1. If you don't have a Dremel tool or the like, this will be a challenge to install. There are LOTS of tabs that have to be cut off to make it fit, and without a electric tool to cut them off, it would be VERY challegning. So, if you don't have a Dremel, beware. 2. Assemble the entire kit and then screw the radio in. The not-super-clear instructions make it seem like you should install the side pieces first, but when I did this, it kept falling apart, the radio didn't line up properly, etc. So, I put the entire thing together and then screwed the radio in. Works perfectly and saves tons of time. Hope these tips help. The trim kit looks professional and makes the radio look original in the car. Recommend if you are handy!

Exactly what I was looking for. I have a pioneer double din radio in my dc4 integra that has been driving me crazy, the whole unit would rattle and slide out after taking off in first and second gear, all because I was too lazy to purchase this product. The instructions were pretty clear and straight to the point. I’m not sure why some people had bad experience with this one but it legit took me 5 minutes to prep and the install was 30 seconds lol, I used some dykes to cut the plastic and it wasn’t perfect by any means necessary but just enough for the tabs not to be in the way. Highly suggest this product. If you have a 94-01 integra, SP Tuning on YouTube does a really great step by step (video I used) and everything worked as it should.

This is like a Swiss Army knife; it 'can' fit many models of Honda's and Acura's. But it takes a lot of patience and care to get it right. The instructions are adequate but not very clear on what parts/tabs/brackets need to be removed to make it 'fit' YOUR car. My 96 Accord required every bracket be removed except four small barbs on the trim cover. I used a Dremel cutting wheel (got to love the smell and mess or melting plastic) to remove the extraneous tabs. All went together well with the exception of the bottom two screws. When installed per the directions, the silver ends of the screws are exposed and are visible after the unit is installed. I used the Dremel to cut and smooth the exposed screw ends and then a Sharpie to 'paint' them black for less visibility. This should be corrected by Metra as it makes an otherwise nice installation look cheesy. AT least make the screws black vs silver. Fit well once all the tabs/sides/cover/support brackets were installed and screwed to the radio. Hope I don't have to take it out again though...

Didn’t fit exactly but I made work you may have too cut some parts off

Super easy to install. For my car I just needed the trim plate (the instructions call it the "radio housing"). I didn't need anything else that was included in the sack. You have to Dremel or cut off a bunch of the clips from the trim plate "housing" and leave only the B and H clips for my car. The metra instructions are cool because they have instructions for many different vehicles for which this kit is compatible. If you don't have a Dremel maybe a razor blade will work to remove the clips, but it's pretty hard ABS plastic. Then all you do is remove the OEM dash kit, snap the trim into place in the OEM kit then install your double din. Peep the finished product. If you already know how to remove the factory dash kit then it's super easy. If you don't then find a video on YouTube. Kinda irritating that I basically had to spend $13 for a trim plate. One came with my double din (Dual) but it was too thick to fit this car so I had to pony up the $13 so there wasn't a gap between the stereo and dash kit. Now it looks correct.

I've installed radios in quite a few cars, and this is probably the worst dash kit I have ever used. The screws used to assemble the kit are too long, and left marring on sides of the headunit, and also left gaps around the frame. The installation process used none of the original screws for the headunit, instead using snap tabs to secure the stereo into the hole. The kit itself would not fit into the dash with the screws necessary to secure the head unit to the bracket without some force, and then required modification to the brackets to allow proper fitment. the faceplate does not sit properly, and has bends and wobbles where the tabs sit. Since this kit is for so many vehicles, many compromises were made. The instructions were highly abbreviated and contained very little specific information for my installation. The tabs to be removed are very difficult to remove clean and flush. Removal of the radio will be difficult, since it snaps in rather than screws in. I will be searching for another dash kit to replace this one and returning it as soon as possible. The quality, fit and finish, and overall experience have been resoundingly terrible, and I am honestly amazed that the manufacturer released this product to market and considers it sufficient and acceptable.

I read the instructions over and over and over. I didn't want to mess up. Once you get it, you get it but yeah. I was confused for a little bit. Taking the tabs off were a p*** since I didn't have any special cutting tool (the dewalt multi-tool (pictured lol) can only take you so far). I eventually got a small hacksaw to saw off some of the tabs and then used sandpaper to file it down smoothly. It was necessary to use the recommended pieces in order to have my stereo sit flush and not move around. Kudos to that. Initially I didn't use the side pieces because I couldn't cut them properly, and I watched a video where the guy didn't use it either. My radio slide around like a fish out of water. Anyway the installation process was pretty easy... just screw in a few screws and then pop the front plate on and you're GOLD. I would recommended for sure.

Basically bought the kit just for the outside trim piece for my 2005 Honda CR-V

Used the kit for a 2002 CRV. The stereo I installed used the factory mounts and installed perfectly. I needed this kit simply to fill the space around the double din head unit. Unfortunately it doesn’t work unless you use the sides and tray parts of the install kit, which don’t actually line up with any factory mount points. Total garbage. I’m going to 3D print my own filler plate. Waste of money

This kit does a good job of filling the gap between the radio and the dashboard. Once installed, the final look is clean and factory-like. Installation takes a bit of effort and adjustment to get everything lined up properly, so it’s not completely plug-and-play. Overall, good quality kit with a clean end result if you take your time with the install.

Worked great on my 99 crv.

Needs to be better fitment in a civic. Installed following all instructions, rationing all lettered clips etc, and front bezel/bracket bends in the middle. Needs to be a better fitment.
