Does anybody know when the new Metra aftermarket stereo console kit be released?

Wasn't aware there was going to be one....where did you hear about it?

I heard it from another mustang forum.

why don't you call them and ask?

I really like the fully-customizable LCD screen. too bad it's so ugly, though.

every review says its poorly made and cheap feeling.

ddougyy

Except we are talking about the next one, which doesn't exist yet....

Flagstang

I thought you meant current since it really is pretty new. Either way its not going to have good fit and finish next to stock.

ddougyy

I own it, it isn't too bad.

Doug - how about some pics so we can see it?

I found this gem online, quick google search for "metra mustang."

This is basically what it looks like. He doesn't really look exactly OEM, but it's fine. Quality is fine and i have not had a problem with it. Retains all original functions. And yes, it is programmed to say "MUSTANG" by default (I suppose in case you forgot what you are driving), but that is customizable.

FOR ANYONE CONFUSED, THIS IS THE CURRENT OFFERING FROM METRA. It costs roughly $200/$230.

What about the NAV display? where did you get that?

ddougyy

It's just a pic from the internet, not my car. I don't have Nav, I have a regular Sony headunit.

like I said, i really like the customizable LCD touchscreen, but it just looks bad overall.

I have the Metra and have to agree that it's not as bad as it looks in pictures. I actually prefer the more plain look without the full color LCD. That is just me, they could improve the look some, but the fit is great.

Love how the Metra site doesn't have info about it.

Does anyone know how big that opening is? Do think a 7" tablet can fit there?
