Metra Electronics® Returns to SEMA with New Automotive Accessories
Oct 4, 2023
Holly Hill, Fla. – Metra Electronics® announces it will again have two booths at the 2023 SEMA Show from October 31 to November 3 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Metra's main SEMA Show booth will be #10539 in the North Hall of the LVCC, and its off-roading and powersports products will be on display at booth #60031 in the West Hall. The manufacturer will introduce over 200 new products from its house of brands and have product experts on-site to meet with show attendees and provide information.
Metra continues to push forward with the development of new dash kits that can be installed with its Axxess radio replacement interfaces for convenient audio upgrades. An assortment of their newest additions to this product line will be unveiled at SEMA, including integrations designed to fit the 2022-Up* Ford Maverick. This dash kit will be fully integrated and designed specifically for select Pioneer® receivers. It will include an Axxess interface specifically for Pioneer radios, vehicle-specific harnessing, a dash kit, and more. Other dash kits launching at SEMA will include applications for the 2013-2020 Nissan Pathfinder, 2019-Up* RAM trucks, 2012-2019 Porsche 911, 2013-2016 Boxster and Cayman, 2021-2023 Ford Bronco, and more.
Metra will showcase next-generation Axxess DSPs, including a DSP package for 2021-Up* Teslas, vehicle-specific T-harnesses, AXTC series interfaces, a newly released series of line output converters, and more. Also, Axxess has announced that it has begun condensing the number of products offered within its vehicle-specific interface product line while keeping all its existing vehicle applications. Show attendees can speak with sales staff on the show floor to find out how Axxess can help their shop meet their audio installation needs.
One exciting new group of products that Metra will display at SEMA are plug-n-play audio systems for select 2014-2022 Harley-Davidson® motorcycles. These products were developed in collaboration with HARMAN International Industries. They feature their popular Infinity Kappa Perfect PowerSports Amplifiers and Speakers paired with DSP integration and installation equipment from Metra's Saddle Tramp® brand. These innovative audio systems will be available to be sold exclusively to brick-and-mortar dealers for in-store sales only. They will be displayed at Metra's offroad and powersports booth, along with other new motorcycle and UTV lighting and accessories.
The Heise LED brand will introduce new vehicle accent lighting kits, individual LED tubes in various sizes, ambient chasing lighting kits for vehicle dash and door trim, a 6 gang switch panel, a chasing third brake light, and more. These products work cohesively with all Heise RGB, RGBW, or chasing LED lighting, respectively, as part of the Heise Connect Universe (HCU). When connected to the brand's Heise Connect RGB, RGBW, or chasing controllers, they can be controlled via the Heise Connect app, available for download on smartphones and tablets.
SEMA attendees will also see several innovations from iBEAM Vehicle Safety Systems. The iBEAM display will include a new window-mounted 2K DVR, a universal multi-mount camera system, and an adjustable spare tire camera kit. These new products are designed to increase safety and protect drivers from liability.
SEMA attendees are always eager to see Metra's newest additions to its line of products designed to fit Jeep®, and this year will not disappoint. New RGB headlight kits and fog light kits, lower dash speaker grille cut-ins, dashboard speaker covers, an A-pillar 8 gang switch panel system, and more will be displayed at this year's show. These products are designed for those who want to make their Jeep® unique while remaining durable enough to withstand off-roading wear and tear.
Also to be introduced are clean wire audio installation products from both the Tsunami® and T-Spec® brands that will offer convenient new ways for installers to stock and replenish their heat shrink label and ferrule supplies. Metra's Install Bay brand will expand its comprehensive collection of professional 12volt installation products with new single-zone and three-zone controllers with Bluetooth® wireless technology, replacement socket kits in various sizes, connectors, fuse holders, and much more. These products are designed using the best available materials and construction to ensure ease of use and years of reliability.
