I have a 2019 with the Kicker KMC10 that has the molded surround. Has anyone swapped this out with a JL or Wet Sounds head unit? The sizes dont match up exactly but I'm wondering if it would still fit. Looking to add a unit that has 6-8 pre-outs and subwoofer pre-out.
 
Probably dont need that many. I have a 6 channel amp, powered sub, and may add another amp later. 2 zones.
 
Well be mindful if you plan on having a 2nd zone. Alot of the marine head units dont offer that until you get into the big dollar ones. Thats the route im starting to lean because I want to control my rear facing speakers independently from the 4 inside the boat
 
Yeah. Looking at either JL or Wet Sounds and wanted to see if anyone has squeezed one in there. The MM55 is smaller, and I could 3D print a fit kit.
 
Take a look at the Hertz brand. I might swap my fosgates out for them. 2 zone capable.

I very recently replaced my Kicker KMC100 with a Rockford Fosgate PMX-2. The head units are not close to the same shape. Had to fabricate a filler panel. Documented my install here Replacing Kicker head unit with Rockford Fosgate PMX-2

Luckily I have access to a 3D printer. Will probably do something similar.

Haw! I went old school. Cut out a scrap of PVC trim on my table saw. Routed the roundover edge. Used a combination square and a utility knife to create the recess.

Post a pic of what you eventually come up with on your new fangled printer gizmo. ;)
