They posted install directions.  Looks like you have to cut out part of the dash cavity to get it to fit.   fun....

That's not really a big deal to cut man.  If you go back to stock, it will not make a difference.  Still waiting on a price though.

Well that's good to know.  They don't list prices on their site for any of their kits. 

I really hope it is for sale soon.  I have all the parts for my new audio install sitting in my garage.  I even bought new speaker wire to redo all the old wiring.  I want this install to last the life of the car.  Trying to do it right.

You and I are in the same boat Ike.  I'm about ready to completely pull the interior from my car.  I already removed all my old speaker wires and I'm ready to replace with new stuff.  What speaker wire did you get?

Don't laugh, I know most people consider Monster cables to be way over priced and a rip off but I thought this was a pretty good deal for 7.5 meters of good cable. 

I picked up two of these

I also got one of these on ebay for half the price amazon is selling it for.  I figured this would make running the pre-amp cables very easy.

The only thing I need other than the dash kit is a good soldering gun.   

I'm thinking about trying one of these cheap battery powered ones.

This is the only site I've been able to find a price on.  That price isn't even including the lower pocket...

Cost is prohibitive.  I'm going to pick it up when I redo my stereo though.  I should have it by the spring.

wow where the hell have I been? Finally there is a kit to move my Dinn up... I have a back up cam and it blows looking down to see if there is a car behind me. I also miss having that cubby to throw my crap into.

599.99 MSRP WTF?
