I was interested in purchasing a Metra or Scosche Dash kit and I would like to know which one you all think is the best?!

I personally like the Scosche.
I recently had it installed, and love it.
However, some of the earlier scosche models had noise and feedback issues.
The are both good, comes down to personal preference.

Thanks a lot. I like the look of the scosche as well. Did you get yours installed at a best buy?

Spartan01 · 02-04-2014, 09:58 AM

yes i did,
Gary at Fair Lakes in Fairfax VA did a great job.
You may need a few additional adaptor pieces depending on whether you have the BA system or not

I think the only extra part I will need to purchase is the XM module. How much was the installation if you don't mind me asking?

love the look of the scosche kit but they have had a lot of problems with that I have had two metro kits and never had a problem with either one and the second one we even cut a part and molded it into an iPad setup, check out my build thread for pics
