Hi Stephen, thank you for your question. These are the dimensions for installation of the Alpine KCU-315UH. Cutout Dimensions: 1.0625" (w) x 1.0" (h) x 1.8125" (d) Outer Dimensions: 1.625" (w) x 1.6875" (h) x 0.3125" (d). Hope this helps!

I had to use a burr on a right angle grinder as a drill would not fit in my chosen location. The specs state Cutout Dimensions: 1.0625" (w) x 1.0" (h) x 1.8125" (d) Outer Dimensions: 1.625" (w) x 1.6875" (h) x 0.3125" (d) I did not measure when I was done to doublecheck, but I would say the description is accurate. The housing has locking tabs on the backside to clip it into the panel. I did not get my whole A Perfect Circle, but because of the tabs it still went in very snug and is not coming out unintentionally.

I'm not sure what size the hole is. I removed my cigarette light and replaced it with this product. I did use a dremel to notch the opening. There is a tab on the plastic insert that keeps it in place and notching the opening accommodated the product fitment.

Q
how does the port stay on the dash when you install it?
jose  Mar 15, 2018

A
The plug end has 2 small clips that will hold it in if the correct size hole is drilled. I used a 1 inch bit and slowly widened it until the end clipped in tightly. Hope this helps
