3 stars. Does the job it's suppose too but according to manf. website it should come with a single din pocket for use when using a single din radio. It did not. Crutchfield took care of it for me because they are awesome but Scosche needs to step up or make it clear one will need to be purchased seperately. Additonally, the area around the hvac controls is just plain plastic. It would be nice if they offered one that maintained the look of the higher trim levels ( ie chrome ). All in all - worked just could be better.

Love it!
Crutchfield customer from Fayetteville, GA on 6/29/2020
2016 Ram 1500
I give this a 5 star because it looks real clean and over all easy to work with. My only thought is there is no way for one of these kits to 100% fit all radios. There is about a 1/4 inch at the top and bottom where the head fits in. If you can live with that, then you will love this!
Pros: Easy to work with And looks great!
Cons: I found the brackets were not exact and had to drill new holes on the brackets to make it fit better.

Terrible instructions with this product
Crutchfield customer from Salem, OR on 5/18/2020
I have always heard such rave reviews about the amazing instructions provided by Crutchfield. Somebody dropped the ball here. A one paragraph sentence and blurry photos are not what I consider amazing. Cutting the dash support arms for my stereo to fit should have been explained in greater detail. I shouldn't have to spend an hour searching and watching YouTube videos to make sense of things. Also, there needs to be a better explanation of using the provided side brackets that secure the stereo in relation to how far back or forward you place the unit in the opening. The first time I snapped the new dash kit back in place there was a huge gap around the stereo. I had to pull everything apart, reposition the stereo and them snap everything back together. Another 45 minutes wasted. Don't even get me started on removing the factory radio buttons to place on this kit. Two calls to support, and again no clear instructions.
Pros: Looks like factory when all installed. Seems to be well constructed.
Cons: Terrible instructions. Missing crucial and key steps. Needs more in depth explanation on vehicle specific steps. More pictures would be helpful.

Great fit.
Crutchfield customer from Spring Hill, FL on 1/31/2020

Perfect fit with minor adjustments. All of the controls fit perfectly and I only had to file out the access for the hazard light button just a tiny bit. Great product.

Was not the right kit for my truck. Crutchfield refunded my money but had to go to a local shop & get the right kit so I could finish installing radio.

Works Well
Crutchfield customer from Waynesboro, VA on 1/24/2019
Easy to use kit, the spot for the temperature buttons seem to slightly, when the unit is put back together, Also the directions for releasing the volume & tuner knobs could be a little more clear. Unit fits dash/head unit well & color is almost identical to stock

Looks as good as the original
Scott from Highland Vlg, TX on 11/14/2018
2017 Ram 1500
Kit looks as good as the original. But had a number of issues removing the original knobs. The directions were correct but it is a pain to pop them off - took 1.5 hours. The smaller holes that wrap around the hazard light button and surrounding holes were holding the buttons in place after a push. Had to sand down the holes to open the space. Took another hour but luckily the sanding was not obvious.
Pros: Looks good
Cons: Very difficult to remove the original knobs - not really an issue with the Scosche but something to recognize Sanding required to open button holes
