    I just picked up my new 2010 Prius II. Plan on upgrading to a double-din in-dash navigation system. I've noticed everybody else is having to order kits from England and then purchase a Metra kit that has 2 side panels.

    I checked Scosche's web site and they have a kit for the 2010 Prius. Has anybody used this kit yet? I noticed that it is currently out of stock, so I'm assuming somebody is buying it. www(dot)scosche(dot)com.

    There is a thread about that kit already. The OP said the kit should be available the first part of this year. Should be a cost savings over the setup you mentioned above. Use the search function to find the thread.

    My bad... I was thinking Metra, not Scosche. Thanks ajc for pointing that out.

    Glad to see that they are both coming out with a kit though.

    Can't wait. I just hope the quality is close to OEM.

    now, if someone would make reasonable priced mud flaps and vent shades, I'd be happy

    Looks like you can also do single DIN Units with the kit too.

    Great, I might just pull my expensive UK surround for this kit. I didn't like the UK surround all that much.:(

    I called Scosche and they said the finish is flat not the same texture that's on the dash.

    for what its worth, metra said the finish would be an exact match when i called....but saying and doing are different stories altogether.

    Yeah, I remember that and got that mixed up with this kit. I like the way this kit is setup and hope the Metra is similar (just with the right texture). If so and the price is right, I may just replace the UK surround.
