Justin B. 8/28/2011 5:09:41 PM Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 2/5Better Than The Alternative This review is from: 00-03 Ford Taurus Merc Sable Install Kit w/o Electronic Clim Control Pros: Better than the Scosche Brand solution with regard to sturdiness. Everything fits well and goes together without hassle. The "Antenna Extension" has the proper Ford Adapter built in so you do not need a separate antenna adapter. All parts that you must migrate from the factory radio to the Metra Install Kit fit perfectly. Cons: The front climate control level indicators are simple decals. One of mine was half falling off upon arrival. We will see if it can stand up to the test of time. The Rear Defrost button is not contoured to match the face of the install kit, therefore it sticks out farther on one side and looks like it is mounted crooked. Also, Metra DEFINITELY could and should have done better on the Rear Defrost button design. Everything about the kit is smooth, solid, and nicely contoured, but then the button is blocky, square, somewhat loose-fitting, and as stated before, looks like it's mounted cockeyed since it doesn't follow the contour of the kit. Still better than the Scosche kit though... Consider this kit the lesser of two evils. Other Thoughts: With only two kits on the market that I could find, this is certainly the better of the two. For the money, I wish Metra would spend more on the kit design and less on the packaging. The kit will suffice and I certainly recommend it over the competitor's product. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
