Metra - Dash Kit for Select 2008-2012 Ford Mazda Escape Tribute DIN DDIN - Black

[Employee of bestbuy] Dashkit looks very nice. It doesn't match the OEM Gloss, but it doesn't look like cheap after market junk.

This dash Kit fit's like factory part .It looks great .

Had to have for a double din deck looks good and does what it is designed for

The color is very close to oem dash and fit was almost perfect. It is slightly off by a couple of millimeters where it connects to the OEM dash. Most people won't notice. I doubt any other dash kit available would be more accurate. Make sure you buy a 7" screen head unit. The dash kit comes with a square "filler piece" that fills the gap between the edges of the head unit and the cut out dash kit. This "filler piece" does not sit flush. The corners stick out and it bothers me every time I look at it. I purchased a 6.8" JVC head unit so the "filler piece" was necessary. With a 7" screen it's not required and would give the final result a much cleaner look.

The dash kit appears to be a reasonable product, but unfortunately, the dashiki, along with a new stereo and associated wiring harnesses were a Christmas gift for my daughter, along with the appointment to get it installed right after Christmas. We came for the install appointment and after 20 min past our appointment we were informed that the installer took the day after Christmas off, and "Sorry, need to reschedule" The dates in store offered were 2-3 months out, and that was very disappointing , especially to my daughter. I set that appointment of Black Friday, in order to get her the stereo as soon after Christmas as possible. I did not feel the manager made any effort to try and make this ant easier for us. Very disappointing service experience.
