FAQ. Why do I need a Dash Kit? 

In the simplest explanation, most auto makers factory radio is different in size and/or shape than a new aftermarket replacement radio.

  • EXAMPLE : If your Vehicle is Listed, then we recommend an Installation Kit with your Aftermarket Stereo

  • IF AFTERMARKET RADIO IS A SINGLE DIN & OEM RADIO WAS LARGER SIZED 2 DIN ( DEFINITELY WILL NEED DASH KIT)

What is a Single-DIN, 1.5DIN, Double-DIN & Shaft Radio?

[DIN]
- A "DIN" receiver (or "E" fit) is the most common sized receiver. It has a rectangular chassis that measures about 7" wide by 2" high (depths vary), and loads into the mounting surface from the front. DIN-size receivers slide into a metal or plastic sleeve that attaches to the front of the mounting location.
[ISO-DIN]
- The "I" and "J" fits are essentially the same dimensions as the DIN receivers, but they do not mount through the mounting sleeve. Instead, they attach directly to the side support system of the factory receiver location. "J" fit receivers have a slightly wider faceplate than do "I" fits. Mounting an "E" or "I" fit receiver into a "J" size hole would leave a slight gap on either side of the faceplate.

  • Single DIN = Standard Aftermarket Radio Size - Measures 7in x 2in (180x50mm)
  • 1.5 DIN = 1/2" Larger than Single DIN (Mostly Used by GM)
  • Double DIN = 2xs Larger than Single DIN (Many Import Radios) - Measures 7in x 4in (180mmx100mm)
  • "Shaft Style"= Old type of radios w/ Knob Controls
