Hey, gragner, that's next on my list. Was the original color way different than stock?

Update on mine, I got the rear entertainment setup in from Nally's on Thursday and installed this morning. I'm not the best with picture only installation instructions, but I am pretty competent with electronics. Those things in mind, the installation was super easy. All truly plug and play. The most difficult stuff for me was routing the wiring, and finally snapping the actual control unit in place.

I'll snap some pics later and add them in. I guess this thread has morphed a little.

Sorry, the color of the stereo bezel, but I got you confused with another post I saw where they painted the new bezel along with the AC bezel to get them to match.

The install took me roughly 3 hours, but that included my trying to find tools that the kids made off with, multiple trips to the garage stereo to change the playlist. It probably took me about twice as long as it would have someone else who wanted to knock it out quickly. Really, even that's probably a long estimate.

And the pics. Camera was tied up, so phone will have to do. Ignore the dirty carpet and cable hanging out under the console. That's been fixed.
