Default Head Unit Install Kit

Are there any higher quality offerings than the Metra kits or the Scoshe ones? Those where what I used last time, and they where not very good fitment/quality. Im planning an install for my next car. Thanks,
John

Try humount.com, they can put custom logos that are backlit or not and all I ever heard is good things about them, price is pretty good too and comes in black and brushed aluminum.
