Metra Motorcycle Batteries & Installation Parts
Established back in the mid-1940s, Metra Electronics is a company that specializes in aftermarket dash kits, installation accessories, speaker adapters, wiring, mounting hardware, power antennas, LED lights, and various electronic interfaces. Its products are widely used in cars, trucks, SUVs, powersports vehicles, motorcycles, and even boats. Actually, a successful installation and good fitment greatly depend on the quality of the abovementioned products. Metra makes reliable and durable installation parts, ensuring that riders and drivers just enjoy their trips instead of dealing with a dangling or malfunctioning stereo, sticking out wires, excess tolerances, defective mounts, and other imperfections.
The company's assortment is really large, and along with the main facilities located in Holly Hill, Florida, Metra also has warehouses in Texas, Kentucky, and several other states. Besides, it owns such brands as Heise, Axxess, Install Bay, Raptor, Shuriken, and some others. Particularly, Heise offers a nice collection of modern LED lights including motorcycle headlights. Some of them are quite innovative and come with multicolor halo rings with a music sync function and various advanced features controlled via a smartphone. Many of the motorcycle dash kits are designed for Harley-Davidson bikes.
The most advanced dash kits have been developed for Harleys made in 2014 and later. Such kits have an electronic LCD interface by Axxess enabling you to install an aftermarket audio system and make it compatible with stock handlebar controls. Apart from that, the company carries plenty of connectors and harnesses allowing you to install an amplifier, speakers, etc; all of them are meant for easy, quick, and reliable installation and available under the Metra, Install Bay, or Raptor trademarks. Shuriken is a brand of high-performance 12V batteries that use AGM technology. Those meant for motorcycles and powersports vehicles are more resistant to strong vibration and excessive heat.
