New stereo install completed.

Just wanted to take a minute and show some pictures from the installation for my new head unit. I went with a Kenwood DDX712 head unit, Sirius radio for it, PAC PWI-JACK steering wheel control adapter, ipod adapter, and the sirius antenna adaptor that allowed me to use the antenna that is on top of the vehicle.

The only thing I'm not overly happy with is the Scoshe mounting kit, in my opinion it sucks. The trim piece rattles and moves around a good bit. Getting the double din radio in perfect position before mounting the trim piece is annoying as well.

Here is the antenna adaptor on the driver side.


Here are the ipod cables coming out of the dash.


Here they are in the glove box, along with the usb cables.




Here is the sirius radio, it's mounted under the passenger seat.



Here is the head unit installed.

 

Thats sick bro!! Congrats on a job well done!! Hows that PAC steering wheel adapter working out for you? I need one too for my Kenwood.

 

Nice Job! On the dash kit did you try using the yellow inserts from the old head unit?

 

Yeah, I used the original clips. Kit still doesn't fit perfect, reminds me of why I always used Metra kits in the past.

 

I am pretty happy with the Metra kit that I got from Crutchfield. I just wish that I had a head unit like yours! That thing is awesome!

​

 

The adapter is working out pretty well, it was pretty easy to install after downloading the vehicle specific instructions off the net. The instructions that come with it are lacking though.

 

Where did you get the specific instructions?

 

Here is a link. Just enter the interface and the vehicle and it will come up.

Where did you get the sirius antenna adapter and do you have a cable name or #? Looks good
