Subtle changes make the difference! New In dash, front lip, and a slight drop...NICE! I would looking into relocating the wiring harness in the near future. Wouldn't want it to get chewed up over time.

Oh yeah, I forgot I that i actually did that already too. Took less than 45 minutes to do. Also installed sub and amp. Planning to get a 10" and fit it into the stock sub port too.

I really like that Pioneer unit. Was that plug and play with some sort of adapter harnessor did you have to modify anything with the harness?
