Installation Ease
Customers generally find the installation of the Metra 95-8240B stereo dash kit easy, but some mention it took time for adjustments and required the use of factory brackets for a secure fit. The kit comes with necessary components for a complete install and fits well in various Prius models.

This worked very well in my 2004 prius the worst part was disassembling the entire dash to change the stereo

The finish of the front trim piece is just okay it feels a little cheap but it fits well if a little loose in the clips

My biggest frustration and i suppose this is partly toyotas fault is the temperature sensor
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Toyota decided to mount the sensor in the stereo so when you replace it you need to find a new solution

This kit comes with a tiny resistor which can serve as a replacement sensor but it will be stuck behind your radio

The issue is how they want you to install it is very janky if not a bit dangerous
