Last month or so Metra finally launched the double din kit for 97 and up F150s/Expeditions/Blackwoods.

WOW!!!!
Thanks KCA for the info. Kinda difficult to believe that it took them this long to create a kit for our applications. |
Did one in my cousin's 98
Here is the dash Kit I used: http://cgi.ebay.com/Ford-F150-F250-F...QQcmdZViewItem 97/98 have a little bit different of a dash then 99-03 I believe. (Bigger space between radio and heater controls I think) But, with a some trimming with a Dremel, here is the finished product: https://www.f150online.com/forums/me...ns-98-f150.jpg |
Look up fdimeroller on here, he did a Eonon install and just took a dremel to what he needed to remove in order for his screen to fit...looks good though

Where is a good place to buy the METRA 96-5818 and was is a good price?
|
you really dont need that dash kit, its wide enough you just have to trim about an inch and a bit off the top and maybe a lil on the bottem and the cage that came with the doubble din should slide right in and u can just fold the cage tabs to hold it in place. u will just hae to set the radio about half an inch out more on the top so it sits flush with your trim.

That kit would be very nice to use.
Check your local stores and see if they will order it for you. Or try installer.com. |
