Holly Hill, FL – August 8, 2019 – Metra Electronics®, the leading manufacturer of aftermarket dashboard kits, is now shipping three new solutions made exclusively for the new 8” Pioneer® Modular Solutions Receiver (DMH-C5500NEX) radio. The 108-CH2B and 108-FD2B are part of Metra’s TurboTouch® dash kit series with integrated electronics and the 108-GM1G is a plastic TurboKit®.
The 108-CH2B TurboTouch dash kit fits Ram 1500/2500/3500 2013-2017 models and Chassis Cab 3500/4500/5500 (with 5” or 8” touchscreen) 2013-2017 models. The 108-FD2B fits Ford F-150 (with 4.2” screen) 2013-2014 models. These TurboTouch kits have an integrated 4.3 inch touchscreen and buttons that retain and control most climate and vehicle customization functions normally lost when removing the factory radio.

 An antenna adapter is included in the dash kit provides NAV outputs for parking brake, reverse and speed sense, along with 12-volt 10-amp accessory power. The hazard buttons and passenger airbag indicator are also integrated into the kit and it is Micro “B” USB updatable.
The 108-GM1G dash kit is painted gunmetal gray and fits select Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra models from 2014-up*. Using the vehicle fit guide at AxxessInterfaces.com or MetraOnline.com, installers can see a variety of interfaces that work in these vehicles, which are sold separately.

I vowed from that day on to get his hands on as many tech products as possible. My approach to a review is to make it informative for the technofile while still making it understandable to everyone. Ben is a new voice in the tech industry and is looking to make a mark wherever he goes. When not reviewing products, I is also a 911 Telecommunicator just outside of Pittsburgh PA.
