Stinger AFP2308 Single DIN Fascia Kit for Mercedes R Class W251 2006 to 2012 in Black with No Cutting Required
The AFP2308 from Stinger is a black single DIN fascia kit designed for the Mercedes R Class W251 from 2006 to 2012, enabling the clean installation of an aftermarket single DIN head unit into the factory dash opening without cutting or modification. Confirmed for the full W251 production range including 2011 facelift models. Mounting brackets are not included and must be sourced separately.
Product overview
The AFP2308 is engineered to match the factory dash geometry of the Mercedes R Class W251 platform, providing a professional, factory-integrated result when installing an aftermarket single DIN head unit. The vehicle-specific design fits the factory dash opening directly, eliminating the need for filler panels, custom fabrication, or modification to the surrounding trim.
The black finish integrates naturally with the Mercedes R Class W251 interior trim for a refined, factory-like appearance after installation. Mounting brackets are not included and must be sourced separately. Confirm the bracket requirements for the specific head unit selected before ordering. Professional installation is strongly recommended for those unfamiliar with Mercedes dash removal or stereo wiring, as incorrect fitment can affect surrounding trim panels and cabin electronics.
