Metra Double DIN Installation Kit for 2013-Up Toyota RAV4 - Fits Grey

In this review of the Metra Double DIN Installation Kit for 2013-Up Toyota RAV4 the bottom line is simple: this kit is for owners who want a gapless, factory-look dash opening when fitting an ISO double DIN radio and an optional single DIN storage pocket. The reviewer found the molded grey finish matches the dash texture closely and that installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with dash removal. The package also bundles a METRA antenna adaptor for 2009-Up Lexus and Toyota vehicles, making radio and antenna wiring integration easier for many installers.

Key Features

• Double DIN provision: Gives a clean, gapless opening for ISO double DIN radios so aftermarket head units sit flush with the dash.
• Storage pocket: Includes a single DIN pocket under the main opening so owners can retain a handy cubby when using a double DIN radio.
• Painted grey finish: High grade ABS plastic painted to match factory dash color and texture for an OEM-like appearance.
• Mounting hardware and instructions: Kit ships with the necessary hardware and step-by-step instructions to simplify installation for DIYers or technicians.
• Antenna adaptor included: The METRA 40-LX11 antenna adaptor cable fits select 2009-Up Lexus and Toyota vehicles, making antenna connection quick and reliable.

Who It's For

This kit is aimed at 2013 and newer Toyota RAV4 owners who want a professional-looking aftermarket radio installation with a grey dash match and an included antenna adaptor for compatible Lexus/Toyota models. It is a good pick for car owners who plan to install an ISO double DIN head unit and want a storage pocket option for single DIN equipment.

It is less suitable for buyers seeking metal or reinforced dash trim, as the kit is molded ABS plastic; those prioritizing heavy-duty or premium materials may want to consider alternative mounting solutions or custom fabrication.
