Upgrade your 2009-2016 Subaru Forester?s stereo system with this custom Car Stereo Adapter, designed to seamlessly fit a Pioneer AVH-1500NEX into the existing space left by the stock CP 625U1 double DIN stereo (without NAV). This adapter was created to fill the gap around the smaller Pioneer deck, offering a clean and professional look without the need for the expensive Metra 95-8902 Double DIN Installation Kit. Key Features: Custom-fit design: Specifically made for the 2011 Subaru Forester 2.5X Premium, but may fit other Forester models from 2009-2016. Seamless fitment: The adapter holds the Pioneer AVH-1500NEX in place without needing screws, but can be further secured using leftover bracket mounting screws from the original stereo deck. Simple installation: No need to pay for expensive installation kits?this custom adapter provides an affordable and DIY solution. Printed in black for a clean match with your Subaru?s stereo console (shown in red for demo purposes). Additional components required: Use the Metra 71-7552 Radio Wiring Harness or equivalent for wiring, the iDatalink Maestro ACC-USB2 USB Adapter Cables for USB AUX ports, and a separate module if you want to retain steering wheel controls. Get a secure, professional stereo installation without breaking the bank.
