The reviewer found the included Metra 99-7874 dash kit, factory stereo harness adapter and antenna adapter remove the usual guesswork and provide a near-gapless fit with painted trim that matches the dash.

Key Features

• Complete installation package: Includes a Metra dash kit, factory stereo harness adapter and antenna adapter so no additional parts are needed for a typical install.
• Direct fit for specific Accords: Designed to fit 2008-2009 Accord vehicles without dual-zone climate controls and functional across 2008 through 2012 models with manual climate, reducing compatibility guesswork.
• Single or double DIN support: The Metra 99-7874 kit accepts both single and double DIN radios and provides a storage pocket for single DIN applications.
• Painted to match factory dash: The dash trim is finished to blend with the original interior, producing a more factory-like appearance after installation.
• Factory radio harness adapter: The included harness plugs into the factory connector to simplify wiring and preserve vehicle wiring integrity.
• Antenna adapter included: Harmony Audio HA-40HD10 antenna adapter avoids antenna compatibility issues when fitting an aftermarket radio.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at DIYers and installers replacing the factory stereo in Honda Accord models from 2008 through 2012 that have manual climate controls.
