This product is amazing. Looks so much nicer and cleaner.

Just got my kit in the mail for my 92 convertible yesterday, can't wait to install it!

[@417fox]

@@noskatehate awesome!

[@kaw_liga]

You knocked it out of the park. The fit is amazing! A buddy’s dad used to make us some single din plates out of brushed stainless in the 90’s. I never thought of reversing the hvac controls!

[@417fox]

Thank you!

[@JesusLomeli-c2v]

Quality product , fits perfectly 417 fox recommended Sony xav-ax150 double din stereo. Very well made bezel and even better customer service , can’t wait to see what 417fox comes up with next .

[@trbstang]

I was impressed with the original, but yes, the screws did kind of take away from the appearance. This revision is 100 times nicer! Hopefully I can get my 87 back on the road this year, and your panel is certainly on my list of mods to do. I did install the 90-93 AC controls years ago and I think I extended one of the vacuum lines since the controls are swapped sides. But I'll make it work! Great job again on it!

[@417fox]

Thank you!

[@bdjroofsanddeer]

I can’t wait to do this!!!

[@drewlon1123]

I'VE did this to my foxbody came out great very simple

[@halecj1]

Just finished installing my kit last night and it looks freakin' awesome! I upgraded from a mid 90's era CD player, so the double din w/ carplay is going to up the enjoyment factor for sure...and now I'll even be able to see the head unit, not hiding behind the shifter! FWIW: On an '89 GT Vert, the only issue I had was needing to trim the back edges off the mounting brackets. If you aren't cutting the brace behind the head unit, the brackets will hit it preventing you from pushing it back the last 1/2 inch or so. Also had to lengthen 2 of my HVAC connections even after opening the harness.

[@417fox]

Thanks for the info! Glad you like it

[@JKWilson61]

Michael I thought you knocked it out of the park with the original version. When it arrived in the mail I was super impressed with the quality. When Caleb dropped his video the other night I was blown away with the new version! Glad I hadn’t gotten around to installing the original one yet. You’ll be seeing my order for the new one for sure!! Way to go brother.

[@417fox]

Thank you brother!

[@Mustangdan351]

I saw Caleb's video the other day. Unfortunately you guys didn't go into a lot of detail about how the bezel get's attached. Thanks for making this video that did exactly that. I really like the single DIN radio that I currently have in my 88 Vert but damn if this new screwless design doesn't make me want to change it to a double DIN with your kit. Maybe one day!

[@jakepschirrer9150]

I have the older one and can't wait to get this one. So clean!

Excellent, I purchase one all ready from you. great idea

[@2pieceharleyaudio]

You should have shown How to disconnect. the Hvac vacum connection under the passenger side dash. As the 1st step. To give the Vacum lines more length. The lines are so tight on my 93 i broke the post off the back of the controls. Thinking i could pull the controls forward. Love the kit

[@jaycobyhyde2742]

Omg that’s so awesome!!

[@jaycobyhyde2742]

[@tminusoftexas3224]

Love it

[@williambailey9012]

Like the look… but damn, all that cutting up of the original dash…

[@shootthemoon9549]

I had a problem with the bracket, the ac screw holes on the right are closer together than the screw holes on the left but both brackets are slotted to match only the screw holes on the left. Also it doesn't appear that the lower bracket will sit flush with the ac control plate so I don't think the velcro tape will work on the bracket because it doesn't stick out as far as the ac controls. I have a suggestion to use instead of 4 bushings use 2 solid blocks with holes drilled in them.

[@417fox]

Thanks for the block suggestion but I am pretty sure you are not adjusting per the instructions regarding the Velcro.

[@scottrogers9542]

Have a technical question, I have an 89 that I’m working on doing your conversion. My situation is that I’m changing my controls to a 90-93 hvac unit. I just like the look a layout so much more than the 89. Does this effect which kit I order from you?

[@417fox]

You will need to order a 90-93 but need hardware kit for 87-89. Message me through my website when you place your order

[@scottrogers9542]

Have you thought about using earth magnets recessed into the plastic

[@shawnspeer1304]

Installing this weekend and doing exactly that. Four magnets on the middle part of the bracket and secured to the plastic face plate. Easy removal and no Velcro.

[@BrailsfordsRides]

That looks super clean, too bad I ike my 4 eye retro car warning display

[@criatorioalvoverde9950]

Nice

[@Bcsader1]

Those that have done this install have you noticed any vibrations or movement in the dash when driving around or hitting bumps. It looks like removing that metal plate from the center console gets rid of a lot of the structural support for the console. Has anyone just cut it for clearance and left the rest of it in place?

[@octaviolara3039]

I left the structural support. Just cut the middle off. Installed the Alpine ILX-650. No issues

[@ferdinandcuevas8457]

Does the airbag module just sit behind the hvac now?

Are these the same directions I use to install the Mod in my 88 Mustang LX?

[@417fox]

Yes. Both versions are in this video

[@scmotorsports]

Hey Michael, love the kit and getting ready to install one on my 91. My head unit is big enough where i have to cut the metal brace behind the radio. Being the Airbag module sits there too, can that module just hang back there? Does it need to sit flat and be solid mounted? I'm just not sure if the module would have a sensor in it for impacts? Thanks!

[@douglasreynolds1776]

Nice job, Can you direct me to custom Boxes for a GT?

[@overheadcam32]

Whats the best radio for this installation? What harness do you need to make it work with a foxbody

[@georgefletcher8014]

What are the opening dimensions for the head unit ?

[@BanditRDR]

On mine I bought a shallow depth Head unit but the supplied radio brackets hit the metal crossbar? So you may have to cut the bar regardless.

[@417fox]

Sorry about the trouble. I do make mention in the tips sheet that was shipped with your bezel you might need to trim the included bracket if installing a shallow depth radio.

[@benweisman4839]

Thanks for this! Are there any newer models of receiver that you'd recommend?

[@417fox]

It’s designed to fit any double din head unit. That is a standard size in the industry. Depth is what to watch. Depth will depend on the level of modifications needed to install.

So my Install is going to be fun. Im installing a Kenwood Dnn992hd its 6.5 deep , 7 wide and 3.925 high. will it work? Its a GPS, DVD and CD and Ipad, wifi , facebood and so much more and its a high end SQ stereo so I need this unit. Thanks

This video totally misses removing the bracket that supports airbag module and what to do with the module. You can see the module installed in factory location, then the vacuum line re routing and the next shot the airbag module is removed as is the bracket it’s installed on.

[@pvnugget]

Does the kit comes with the metal brackets?

[@mghoward74]

and what if i need to replace the radio? The bezel is permanently attached to the radio via 3m tape. Will you send another bezel, when i replace the radio? or do we buy another bezel
