What dash kit should I get for my 2013 RA?
Hey everyone, so I just got my 2013 
Ralliart and the first thing I'm doing to it is putting in my 2 12" alpine type-r subs, JL audio g-max amp, and I just bought a nice kenwood nav unit to replace the stock radio. I have almost everything I need except the dash kit and wiring harness. Does anyone have any recommendations on which dash kit I should get for it? Does it matter that it's a 2013? Bc mostly what I've seen online say 08-12. The guy at the install place gave me a list of what I needed and it has a metra dash kit listed, except I've read really crappy reviews on that one. I'm not looking to spend hundreds for this thing, I just want one that fits good and matches the rest of the dash (and is affordable of course). Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!
I tried both the scoshe and the metra and the fitment was terrible! :P
I finally found on EBay[tm] the 'JDM' Nav Kit (which includes 'the good double din dash panel') that does fit well. Hard to find....
You will also want the PAC SWI to keep your steering wheel controls.
The wiring harness kits are fine - no difference.
I was able to put the amps under the seats (d/s is easy - the p/s requires removing the seat component brackets and zip-tie-ing them to the bottom of the seat
)
See the audio sections (EVO X and RA/Lancer) for more info and options!

Fits perfectly and all steering buttons work.
