METRA 95-8262HG Double DIN Dash Kit Toyota Corolla 2017-2019 Gloss Black

Vehicle Fit and Purpose

The Metra 95-8262HG dash kit enables installation of an ISO double-DIN aftermarket radio into Toyota Corolla models from 2017 to 2019. It replaces the factory dashboard opening with a gloss black trim panel and mounting brackets designed for those specific model years. Builders upgrading the head unit in a compatible Corolla use this kit to achieve a factory-like fit.

Required Companion Parts

The kit supplies the radio trim panel, radio brackets and four #8 x 3/8" Phillips screws for mechanical mounting. Electrical integration demands separate purchases: wiring harness 70-1761, antenna adapter 40-LX11 and steering wheel control interface ASWC-1. Installation also requires a panel removal tool, Phillips screwdriver and 10mm socket wrench, none of which are included in the package.

Long-Term Dashboard Integration

Once installed, the rigid brackets secure the aftermarket radio against vibration and temperature cycles experienced in daily driving. The gloss black finish matches the interior trim without relying on adhesive tapes that can degrade over time. Because the kit uses the original dashboard mounting points, the radio remains stable through extended use without developing panel gaps or rattles.
