Looks good, except for the damage to the dash around the new kit. It's a sensitive area so I understand.

that was from a previous "removal of the HU" when i had my jensen DVD installed...by another installer....
the pic is some what misleading tho...there are really only 2 small spots...
i havent cleaned up the whole console and dash since the install..

thanks...

the steering wheel interface is pretty inexpensive....about $50-60
depending on where you go..

i got everything on the intarweb....

i tried getting the Pioneer from ebay...but got outbid a few too many times...
you can get the HU anywhere from $700-1100

the sirius receiver is around $80-90
the blue tooth adapter is less than $100

Next year, I'll send you my car's X-mas List.

In the one pic, you were on FM1 and station 96.5, that's usually a classic rock for most parts of the East Coast. It was just a guess.
