^^^ Sweet, throw some pictures and all that good stuff... The main thing I am looking for is the integration of the steering wheel controls with iPod in a non-nav unit

Got my GTA today. Install is pretty easy & works great. But with Nav, there isn't a list of songs or anything like that at all.

@redmethods, so the GTA doesn't integrate with the stock nav? well, I don't have Navi on my IS, so not too worried... Looking forward for your thoughts later in a few days...

Yes, one of them its the microphone. I will be installing it with some friend's help. As for the bluetooth mic, I think I will be running the wire through the bottom and up the A pillar.
