Scosche Dash Kit

RussianRocket · 01-19-2013, 04:36 PM

I may be ignorant when it comes to this so sorry if this is obvious. Is the dash kit necessary if you put in a double din head unit? I thought a headunit like the ken wood 9990hd fits perfectly in the 370z...

I just installed the Pioneer AVH 4500 and used the factory bezel. There is no no need for a dash kit if you are using a double din head unit.

Really like the HU, Android friendly. Still experimenting with the App Mode. Good luck on your install.

I disagree. I have the Scosche dash kit currently installed in my car and it has a better fit than the original factory bezel. The original dash kit is a little bit wider than the Scoche and leaves a small subtle gap on the sides which I can see even in your pictures.

I've compared the Metra (Which i used to have), the Orginal, and the Scosche kit and if you want the BEST fit the Scosche is the way to go.

Only if you have a non-bose system already with DD opening...as for me I needed the Metra Kit for my DD.

but you have a gap around the perimeter. on my install (same AVH4500BT) i removed the thin felt on the factory bezel (just peel it off, use RC car motor spray or RC Nitro glow engine cleaner), made a gasket using black hard felt. absolutely no gap. unfortunately i dont have a close up pict of my HU right now...

also did this.
