Wish I had known too but there's no way I'm tearing everything out again until I upgrade stereos next year. I like the cleaner look of the Scosche but I got my Metra kit to work well with my Kenwood.

The finish is very nice, almost rubbery to the touch but you have to be extremely careful during the entire process not to scratch it, even until the last step of reinstalling the center console (shifter/armrest). One wrong move and the whole Metra bezel will have to be repainted if you're obsessive. I came close several times.

I didn't like how the thin bezel in the Metra kit was shiny black while everything else was matte so I painted it flat black and it looks much better. Now I don't like how the Kenwood is gloss piano black but nothing I can do about that now.

I guess I'll pick up a Scosche kit and put it on the shelf for a while or until Kenwood comes out with it DNX-SuperDuper9999DN.
