This unit is designed for installation in cars, trucks and vans with an existing 

radio opening. In many cases, a special installation kit will be required to 

mount the radio to the dashboard. These kits are available at electronics 

supply stores and car stereo specialty shops. Always check the kit 

application before purchasing to make sure the kit works with your vehicle. 

If you have trouble locating a kit or need installation assistance, contact 

Technical Support at 1-800-323-4815 from 8:30am to 7:00pm EST Monday 

through Friday and from 9:00am to 5:00pm EST on Saturday.
Tools and Supplies
The following tools and supplies are needed to install the radio:
•

Torx type, flathead and Philips screwdrivers

•

Wire cutters and strippers

•

Tools to remove existing radio (screwdriver, socket wrench set or other 

tools)

Preparation
1. Disconnect Battery

Before you begin, always disconnect the battery negative terminal.

3. Remove Radio from Sleeve

Lift latches on both sides of sleeve to remove half-sleeve from radio.

Mounting Sleeve Installation
1. Slide the mounting sleeve off the chassis. If it is locked into position, 

use the removal tools (supplied) to disengage it.

2. Check the dashboard opening size by sliding the mounting sleeve into 

it. 

If the opening is too small, carefully cut or file as necessary until the 

sleeve easily slides into the opening. Do not force the sleeve into the 

opening or cause it to bend or bow. Check for sufficient space behind 

the dashboard for the radio chassis.

3. Locate the series of bend tabs along the top, bottom, and sides of the 

mounting sleeve. With the sleeve fully inserted into the dashboard 

opening, bend as many of the tabs outward as necessary to firmly 

secure the sleeve to the dashboard.
