Metra Double-DIN Dash Kit Honda Pilot 2003-2008 Black

Metra 95-7861 is a precision-fit black dash kit that lets you mount a double-DIN aftermarket radio into 2003–2008 Honda Pilot dashboards without cutting or cosmetic damage.

Swap in a modern double-DIN head unit while keeping your Pilot's interior looking factory-finished. This Metra kit was engineered to match the contours and mounting points of Pilots built from 2003 through 2008 (for models that did not come with factory navigation), providing a secure, gap-free installation and consistent trim color to blend with your dash.

Will this bracket fit my 2003–2008 Honda Pilot?

Yes — the 95-7861 is made specifically for 2003–2008 Honda Pilot vehicles that did not include the original factory navigation unit. It uses the OEM mounting locations so the radio aligns properly and the finished opening looks factory-made.

• Compatible model years: 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008
• Intended for Pilots without factory nav systems
• Molds to the OEM dash contours for a clean fit
• Includes mounting features for standard double-DIN radios

How does the kit simplify installation?

Metra designed this dash kit to streamline the swap from factory radio to aftermarket double-DIN units. It reduces trimming, filler panels, and guesswork so installers—DIYers or pros—can mount and align the new head unit faster and with consistent results.

• Uses existing dash screw locations—no additional brackets needed
• Pre-shaped opening matches double-DIN radio dimensions
• Smooth bezel finish makes final trim visually seamless
• Works with common mounting hardware used in car audio installs

What materials and finish should I expect?

The kit is produced in durable automotive-grade material with a black factory-style finish that resists fading and matches dashboard textures. The rigid construction holds the radio securely and resists warping over time, preserving panel alignment and appearance.

• Black finish designed to coordinate with Honda Pilot interiors
• Sturdy plastic designed for long-term in-dash use
• Factory-style texture for a cohesive look with OEM trim
• Made in the USA to automotive quality standards

Can I expect any trim gaps or modulation issues?

When installed according to instructions and using the OEM mounting points, the kit produces minimal visible gaps and maintains a flush bezel around the radio face. Proper screw torque and correct mounting hardware help achieve the intended appearance and stability.

• Engineered for tight, factory-like seams
• Compatible with most aftermarket double-DIN head units
• Follow install instructions to avoid misalignment
• Works alongside Metra harnesses and accessories for smoother installs

Who is this for: drivers and installers who want to upgrade a 2003–2008 Honda Pilot with a double-DIN aftermarket radio while preserving a factory-quality appearance. This kit is ideal for professional car audio shops, experienced DIY installers, and anyone replacing the factory single-DIN or non-nav dash with a modern head unit and needing a clean, durable finished look. Because it’s built in the USA and tailored to Pilots without factory navigation, it’s a reliable choice when you want a direct-fit, visually consistent installation.
