Karey Watson Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Hey guys - I am looking to install a new stereo receiver in my '12 Transit Connect. I am having problems with where to get a mounting bracket, though. I have found a few but they say they do not work on Crutchfields site and they have told me that I will have to fabricate a mount to make it work. I am not looking forward to that so I am here asking you guys if you have any knowledge or advice.Here is a link to a kit Crutchfield has but says it will NOT fit a 2012 Ford Transit Connecthttp://www.crutchfield.com/S-N0BsVkiINY1/p_142FD1444B/Ford-Transit-Connect-In-dash-Receiver-Kit.htmlHere is another link to another site that says it WILL work but when you click on the installation sheet the Transit is clearly not listed...http://www.carid.com/2012-ford-transit-stereo-installation/metra-stereo-dash-kit-4480712.htmlFinally, here is my dash in it's current state.I am wanting to get the stuff ordered ASAP so any advice you guys can throw my way would be more than appreciated.Thanks in advance!

Precisionair Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 After several ( mounting kits) I purchased didn't work, I had a Kenwood Navigation head unit I purchased online installed at audio depot... They, as well as most car audio facilities, will have the proper mounting, antenna adapter, & trim to fit your TC. My TC is a 2013 and it looks factory installed, and they even integrated the steering wheel radio controls to work with the Kenwood. (with an adapter module) Good Luck!

Cosmin Crisan Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Have you looked at the Metra kits? They say they have one for TC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precisionair Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 It was the "Metra" kits I tried; two of them... Didn't work.... at least for the Nav unit... They might work for single DIN units though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
