Press Release (UNEDITED): Holly Hill, FL– Axxess® by Metra Electronics® has expanded its product line to include additional vehicle applications for popular integration solutions. Now shipping are five new fully integrated dash kit packages designed specifically for select Pioneer® receivers*. The kits are an addition to Axxess’ popular AXPIO line and include vehicle-specific harnessing for select GM truck and SUV models. These new integration accessories help installers deliver upgraded sound systems and everyday convenience to drivers, with less labor and work in the install bay.
The AXPIO-XXXX packages include an Axxess interface, plug-n-play vehicle-specific harnessing, a dash kit, and an antenna adaptor.
