Metra Charges Forward to the Next Level
December, 2012: HOLLY HILL, FL – Metra Electronics is pleased to announce radio replacement in 2011 and up Dodge Charger now possible with the 99-6514B kit and interface combo.
The 2011 and up Dodge Charger was redesigned with quality, style, and technology in mind. Radio replacement wasn’t an option until Metra’s R and D team got involved. Now it’s a snap to install an aftermarket car radio thanks to Metra’s 99-6514B dash kit and interface combo. The 99-6514B is designed to match the factory dash contours and painted a scratch resistant matte black for a factory look.
See the video for the Stereo dash kit 99-6514B for DODGE CHARGER 2011 & UP.
The factory 4.3” touch screen is retained, while the aftermarket radio is placed in the original climate control location.
The interface included with the kit retains the function of the factory 4.3” touch screen while adding 2 switchable video inputs. New, backlit rubber buttons control the climate functions while the touch screen climate controls may still be used. The interface also supplies a 12 volt-10 amp accessory lead, retains the R.A.P. (Retained Accessory Power) functions, and provides Navigation outputs (Parking brake, Reverse, Mute, and V.S.S.). The interface is also prewired for the Axxess ASWC steering wheel control interface making it that much easier to retain factory options. The interface uses High Level speaker inputs and retains Balance and Fade control.
USB updateable using a Micro B to USB cable via www.axxessinterface.com ‘s USB Boot Loader program guarantees you have the newest firmware available at all times.
Use the ASWC steering wheel control interface and a 40-EU10 antenna adaptor to complete the installation of your aftermarket radio.

Metra Builds The First Installation Kit with Aftermarket Climate Control Built-in
October, 2012: HOLLY HILL, FL – Metra Electronics is pleased to announce the upcoming release of the 99-7803G for the 2003-2007 Honda Accord.
In 2003 Metra Electronics set out to do something never done before in the realm of aftermarket radio installation kits. The 2003 Honda Accord's factory radio and climate controls were integrated in one part. The buzz in the industry was "They say it can't be done." Metra did it, providing the first installation kit with an aftermarket climate control built in. Over the past 9 years, more than a dozen of these kits were developed at Metra, getting better looking each time. With that experience, Metra has decided to re-build the 2003-2007 Accord kit with major improvements.
See the video for the 99-7803G for the 2003-2007 Honda Accord
The new 99-7803G comes to life from a combination of Metra's real world experience and understanding their customers’ needs. The biggest engineering achievement would have to be the ability to now install double-DIN radios. The new design with rubber backlit buttons and an LCD display allows this kit to retain all factory climate functions in both manual and auto climate equipped cars with no additional parts needed. Additionally there will be a replacement pocket for the lower dash. The factory pocket can remain, but doesn't operate so Metra's 88-00-7803 will be available sold separately as a better looking solution. Once again Metra adapts to the changes in mobile electronics trends, providing a modern solution for a popular vehicle. "It can be done".
