Metra Dash Kit Install - El Centro, CA

Best Buy Geek Squad (in particular Sergio from the El Centro branch) installed my stereo head unit and subsequently a Viper alarm system into my 2010 Ford F-250. Sergio applied his expertise to the entire process including recommendation, diagnostic, ordering, and install. He knew exactly what would work for my installation (including harnesses, kits, and adapters/converters) to meet my expectations. Sergio was extremely polite, respectful, and customer service oriented including his patience with me as I know very little about the nature of vehicle electronics and he entertained and answered all of my amateur inquiries. Sergio completed the install as scheduled, in a practical time frame, and I was more than satisfied the work Sergio completed as my truck was returned to complete factory condition with the install done correct the first time. I highly recommend having this kind of work performed at Best Buy El Centro as opposed to other local stereo shops as I shopped around prior to the install, and found that the other shops did not carry the higher quality stereo head by Sony, and although the cost was a bit cheaper for the install, with Best Buy you have the peace-of-mind that your install is performed using the highest quality materials (such as wires, tape, etc.) that will last for the lifetime of the vehicle, vs. the most cost-efficient to keep the overhead of the stereo shop low. Best Buy stands by their work and their products, while the other guys won’t offer a guarantee for their work. Thank you Best Buy and especially Sergio V. for a job well done the first time! -ShawnM

Works, looks and sounds great. There is a mini speaker that I have to talk into for phone calls that they attached close to my sun visor. The calls go in and out. Not sure if it too far way or just need to get adjusted. But over all I’m very satisfied. The radio itself sounds and works wonderfully. The back up camera is good quality for the price.

Clean and easy install. It looks aftermarket but looks good. Would like an option that makes an aftermarket touch screen look more factory.

Bought this to install a new radio into my 2006 Ford Explorer, and it worked perfectly. There were parts for double din, as well as single din installations. I used the double din, and it made my installations very easy to do

Used on 04 f150 new body style. Instructions were easy to follow and looks great in dash. They did recommend to use spacers. However I didn’t and it seemed to fit great.

I bought this for my truck (2005 f-150) after relising that I forgot to get one for my head unit, I was a little confused at first because you only see the single bin with the tray, but it is a complete kit for either a single din or double. Easy instalation, only 6 screws + wiring up harness

It replaced the stock equipment in my 2008 F-150 nicely! It also fits a few more years of Fords & Mercurys, I'm just not exactly what years or models...

This kit has two large holes in the bottom of the pocket below the stereo that are large enough to loose coins, ear rings, and other small items behind the dash. I contacted Metra twice; the first tech asked me to send pics and that there shouldn't be holes anywhere near that size. I sent pics and called back the next day. The second tech told me that the holes are in the design for stress relief during the molding process. He suggested putting some felt over them. That is a load of you know what.

What I did not realize is that by using the pioneer stereo I selected it created a small cubby for me to store stuff in directly under my stereo. This was an added bonus I did not expect.

This kit worked out great for my new stereo I installed in my mustang. It was pretty heavy duty and looks really good in my dash. It fit and is sturdy that will hold my new stereo. Great kit and good price

This product allowed for a clean installation of a new in dash system. Looks great, very functional and Best Buy did price matching to guarantee lowest available price!
