2012 Honda Civic EX dash kit

Daniel from Carmichael, CA on 2/22/2024

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Fits the car well, and is a reasonable color match for a 12-year-old car that has had some sun fading on the dashboard. The clips do not seem quite as strong as the ones on the factory piece, but this is also a fraction of the price, so I can't complain. I am not sure how it will hold up to repeated removal/re-installation, so test everything on the new head unit before final mounting into the dash. It holds the stereo great, is easy to adjust and it gets the job done. The fit is snug, and there are no rattles or squeaks from the dash after installation, overall I would recommend this product.

Pros: Fits well, looks good and is a more than reasonable color match for a 12-year-old car

Cons: mounting tabs/clips appear less strong than the factory piece.

Easy to scratch

Bryce from Temecula, CA on 8/28/2023

2012 Honda Civic LX

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

The fit is perfect however there should be a protective film that covers the plastic until installation is complete. The coating is too easy to scratch if you are installing a deck and need to keep it out of the dash cavity for extended amounts of time. Maybe the supplied padding was intended to be that protective layer but it doesn't stick to the plastic. Something as simple making tape would do the trick. For anyone using these kits, I highly recommend either taping the padding to the plastic or applying masking tape directly to the plastic to prevent scratches until your installation is complete.

Cons:

Verified employee review (What's this?)

Made my radio fit perfect with amazing lines that look stock. The hooks were so good I didn't have to figure out the dumb screws Honda uses in the bottom. It also matched the color scheme of my interior well.

Pros: Well fitting. Strong hooks. Good color. Snug radio mounting.

Cons: None other than a few more screws for the radio mounting would be nice

This is close to the original but clearly not exactly the same color or size as the OEM. There is a couple of mm's difference where it joins to the other dashboard trim. Not a big deal but noticeable if you look hard. It works fine though

Great fit and finish, hardware included

Grant from Lewis Center, OH on 11/14/2022

2012 Honda Civic LX

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

The install was easy to do and it looks great in the car! They provided new trim clips to put on the new beauty plate which was nice, because it ensures the piece snaps back into the dash very securely. The piece looks and fits like it should've been there from the factory.

Pros: Fit, finish, hardware included.

Cons: The final push into the dash is a little more snug than I would've liked (I was afraid I was going to break it for a minute) but once I got the piece squeezed in, it snapped into place very solidly and looked great

Verified employee review (What's this?)

The dash kit makes installing a radio so easy compared to when you needed to somehow bolt your radio into the dash board. The radio fits nice and flush with the inside corners. However, small modifications to the bolt holes are almost always necessary.

Pros: Makes installation super easy.

Cons: Bolt holes are slightly misaligned. Use a dremel tool to open them up slightly.

Works for what I needed it for. Bought a new radio at a local store, and they didn't have this party to make it for my car. They did the installation, so I can't speak to that. Took off a star because the color doesn't match the rest of my dash, but I'll get used to it.

Verified employee review (What's this?)

It works Great. It is just a wee bit (like 1%) different in color. Nobody getting in the car will notice nor probably you after a short while. The plastic brackets are sturdy and won't scratch anything. I think it needs 8 screws like the directions show not 6 like I got. This happened with a single din dash kit too.

Crutchfield customer from Chesapeake, VA on 7/9/2020

2012 Honda Civic EX

Verified customer (What's this?)
Verified employee review (What's this?)

Not impressed with this kit. The kit for a 2012 Civic uses plastic mounting brackets. While it may not sound like the end of the world it's a double DIN unit and the factory mounting location requires the unit be supported from below. Eight screws hold the plastic brackets to the head unit and then these same brackets are mounted to the vehicle by two flimsy sheet metal screws at the smallest and weakest part of the bracket. To add insult to injury where the plastic bracket mounts to the vehicle there isn't even a designated hole/location in the bracket just self tapping screws to secure it. It's a really poor design of the bracket using cheap plastic.

Pros: Comes with everything needed

Cons: Cheap plastic mounting brackets

Just a hair too wide, so fitting the dash cluster bezel is a bit of a pain to get it to sit flush. The color also isn't exact, so it's a bit obvious that it isn't OEM. Overall, I'm happy with it though.

Color match is pretty good but I had to cut off 1/4" of it to have the deck fit flush. It would have worked but looked like crap having the deck recessed in it.
