How To Fix Car Stereo That Keeps Sliding Out Of The Dash

fitting kenwood car stereo into dash din slot to stop it sliding out

If you tend to drive fast in your car and you notice the car stereo keeps sliding out of the dash slot, it can disconnect from the wiring harness making it fall out. This is the last thing you want when you are listening to your favourite music loud when driving on tight corners on the highway. Now the reason why most car radios slide out of the dash slot is because you have not used a mounting cage. This fits directly into the din slot and locks the CD player in when its fitted to prevent it coming out from any kind of movement. Whether its a factory stock or aftermarket, you will need to ensure that you have the correct mounting bracket kit.
