Kenwood Trim Question

Dubro · 03-23-2011, 05:18 PM

Vehicle is a 2010 Nismo. Stereo is a Kenwood 9960. Qustion is; I have the
H.U. installed. Now I'm trying to fit the A/C panel and I see there is a gap all around the face of the H.U. Does the square plastic piece go on the H.U. before the A/C panel or afterwards? thanks

If you want to get rid of the gap, you'll have to buy an aftermarket unit. I bought the Metra surround. The frame that comes with the 9960 doesn't work in our cars.

Metra 99-7607B dash kit for Nissan 370Z is NOW AVAILABLE!

No gap at all get dash kit

Pioneer head units defiantly need dash kit

I thought I read that the Nismos didn't need the Metra kit. Question is when I re-install the a/c face plate there is a 1/4 inch gap (pretty large) around the H.U. Are you supposed to install the supplied square plastic trim piece before or after you install the a/c face plate? thanks
