Features & Benefits

Premium Piano Black Finish - High-gloss piano black ABS plastic construction matches Nissan's contemporary dashboard design across X-Trail and Qashqai models. This premium finish eliminates the matte appearance of generic black adapters and maintains the sophisticated aesthetic expected in modern Nissan SUV and crossover interiors.

Generous Opening Dimensions - The 183×104mm opening (without trim ring) provides larger clearance than standard double DIN specifications, accommodating a wider range of aftermarket head units including those with extended bezels or larger screens. This reduces modification requirements and provides excellent compatibility with modern 7-9 inch multimedia receivers.

Easy Snap-In Installation - Purpose-designed clips and mounting points allow for straightforward snap-in installation without complex modifications, making this ideal for DIY enthusiasts and professional installers. The intuitive design with included side brackets reduces installation time significantly.

Complete Professional Installation Kit - Every essential component included: precision-cut piano black fascia panel, double DIN trim ring for clean edges, side mounting brackets for secure fitment, rubber ring seal to eliminate rattles, and all required installation screws. This comprehensive solution ensures professional results.

Rattle-Free Installation - Included rubber ring seal eliminates gaps and vibration noise, providing tight fitment that prevents annoying rattles over speed bumps, rough roads, or long-distance family touring. The seal ensures professional quality lasting through years of daily use in family SUV applications.

Durable ABS Construction - High-grade automotive ABS plastic with piano black coating resists UV degradation, temperature extremes, and daily wear. The material maintains structural integrity and gloss finish across Australia's diverse climate conditions, from urban commuting to weekend adventure touring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does compatibility vary between X-Trail and Qashqai The X-Trail continues with 2014+ compatibility, while Qashqai is specified for 2014-2019. Dashboard variations in later Qashqai models may require visual verification, which is why we recommend sending a dashboard photo for post-2019 Qashqai models.

What is piano black and will it match my interior Piano black is a high-gloss black finish commonly used in modern vehicle interiors for premium appearance. It matches the contemporary trim style found in 2014+ Nissan X-Trail and Qashqai models across centre console and dashboard applications.

Will I need to modify the fascia for installation The oversized 183×104mm opening minimizes modification requirements. Minor trimming may only be necessary for unusually large multimedia receivers, though most standard double DIN units install without modification using the snap-in design.

Does the kit include all mounting hardware Yes, this complete kit includes the piano black fascia panel, trim ring, side mounting brackets, rubber ring seal, and all necessary installation screws. Most aftermarket head units also include their own mounting cage which works with these components.

Can I verify compatibility before purchasing Yes, we strongly recommend sending a dashboard photo to confirm compatibility for your specific X-Trail or Qashqai model, year, and trim level. Dashboard designs can vary, and visual verification ensures proper fitment before purchase.
