96 Buick Century

I bought this after purchasing a stereo and "all" necessary installation parts for a 1996 buick century from another online store. Everything worked except the new deck wouldn't set far enough into the dash. This set it out far enough to clear the heater duct and fixed the problem. I mocked up a stereo order from CF with similar stereo and this kit was included along with installation instructions. I won't make that mistake again. It will be Crutchfield now on for me!

Not very good at all

Kit consists of a main body that you mount to vehicle and then one of three different adapters snaps into (nice set up). Problem. The main body has no mounting brackets. My truck appeared to have an older version of this innit as the mounting brackets from old kit worked. There were only two, I had to fabricate a third. 2nd problem. My brand new Jensen single din radio did not fit into any of the 3 adapters without needing to file about 1/16 of an inch on both left and right side (there is an insert for shaft radio I removed , but din opening is too narrow for radio unless the Jensen radio is wider than standard , i doubt it. Lack of supplying a couple small brackets ( they said use brackets that came with radio, there were none, and wrong size hole ruined an otherwise decent product

Using this in an 84 Fiero. Seems to fit ok. Have not drove the car since installing this kit, hoping road vibration does shake it loose.Kit does not include mounting tab to fasten it solid to the dash, think you are supposed to use the one from the stock radio which mine did not when I bought the car. It does have different face plate options for flush, 1/2" out, and 1" out from dash depending on how far back your radio sets in the dash.I have a Kenwood KMM-BT228U reseiver and was able to use the flush face plate.

Great fit for a first gen Chevy S10.

Kit fits a 1984 Chevy S10 perfectly with the zero rise face plate on a Kenwood media player. The kit also comes with what looks like a 5/8" rise and a 1" rise faceplates so a CD player MAY fit with the 1" plate. I know they will not with the zero rise. Good quality and by using the side brackets that were on the factory radio to mount the new bracket in the install is very sturdy and no chance of the player sagging in the rear.

No guessing or detective work needed

I love that Crutchfield includes adapters and mounting hardware with your order. Been using them since 1991 when the factory radio just doesn't cut it.

Missing mounting tabs

I needed this kit to install a modern removable faceplate Alpine receiver into the dash of a 1987 Buick Regal Grand National. The kit came in a sealed bag, but didn't have any mounting tabs. I needed the tabs to attach to the sides of the kit to attach it to the dash. I don't know how the makers of this kit expected the kit to be mounted. I ended up finding some bits and pieces from some past installs of several other kits to complete the job. Keep in mind, this isn't my 1st install by far. I've been installing high complete stereo systems since the late 80's. This includes custom sub boxes, amp racks, crossovers and the old Alpine multidisc players, just to name a few. Extremely disappointed.

Nice but needs brackets

No blemishes on plastic and texture is nice. Three sizes permits custom fit. Overall nice product to make things easier. The instructions are not not clear and appear to be a photocopy of a photocopy a thousand times over. That said, it's easy to figure it out. I bought this for a 1986 Olds Cutlass 442 and the only disappointment is that it doesn't come with the side mounting brackets that hold the entire assembly to the dash. Make sure you save your old ones or buy a universal kit.

Good but not great

Its not bad for what it is but I was hoping it would help the radio blend in with the rest of the car, which it didn't at all. It actually made it look more out of place because it causes it makes the unit stick-out a bit eventhough there was more than enough space behind it..

It is nice and straight forward. Pick the correct front for your car and radio, bend the tabs to hold it in and your ready to go. Holds the radio nicely and looks good.

Dash kit

This thing makes a 1 din radio fit in like it would have from the factory. Gives everything a nice, clean look. The instructions were a bit difficult to understand but when I compared it to my old factory radio things came together fairly easily. I like that it comes with different plates to poke the radio out a bit if space is needed.

Not the best but worked

Biggest problem I had with this kit is if you are using an older unit that you have been swapping in and out of vehicles and you do not have the DIN mount that came with said unit you are fabbing up brackets. This means you are under the dash a lot longer placing unit in and out to try to make it look as good as possible. Would like to have found a face plate that had a small pocket in it, they had plenty of room to mold one into it. But hay for the price and I was able to find something for a 1990 Oldsmobile 88 Royale I should complain.

Looks better than expected. Bought this for my 90 Cadillac Coupe DeVille. Took some time to install since the bracket from the old stereo did not fit perfectly on the kit. Had to use a file to make an opening bigger so I could make it fit. Not too difficult though.

GOOD PRODUCT - LIMITED DIRECTIONS

I have used this kit in other applications and already knew the "tricks" to getting it installed. Fit was perfect after I trimmed off 2 alignment tabs on the car's lower radio bracket that prevented its installation on the kit's chassis support cage. The installation instructions (diagrams) still need to be improved on this product to eliminate questions by the user.

Leaves things to be desired

This item comes with everything but aftermarket brackets. The Crutchfield website clearly states that the mounting brackets from the factory stereo are required for proper installation. This item should just come with plastic replacement brackets as we did not have the original stereo and the item is dealer only, that of which is not stocked or manufactured anymore.

Not a complete install kit

Ordered this to go with my new pioneer reciever in a 1989 Pontiac 6000. I was unable to use it though since the car no longer had the factory system in it to get the mounting brackets off of. The brackets to mount this kit to the dash are not included and they say to use the ones off of the factory stereo....that doesnt work when the factory stereo was pulled out years ago.

Makes the install easy and professional looking!

This was really a no-brainer. When you have a double din spot in the dash and in my case a radio that was 1 inch deeper than what my Lumina had room for, this made the installation look professional and very simple.

Had To Buy Different Kit

When I bought my new radio for my car, I bought this with it. Well, I had to buy a whole new kit because this was not able to secure the bracket in place. Everything else was fine but I could not secure the radio in so it was just sitting in the hole. It needs more instructions.

Its great... If you know what your doing

This has a nice clean look, but their are no instructions included. Luckly I put together several simular types of kits. I put an extra front panel in the back of the adapter to have a more stable frame since I will hit a few rocky dumps. This is nice and easy to put together if you have done it before.
