    Nice truck. I mounted the same radio in my Cruiser and it has been fantastic so far. Are you going to use the USB port on the front of the radio for your bluetooth interface or use the wire and put it someplace else?

    Right now im using the AUX cable, or the bluetooth that is built into the radio to play the music off my phone, and have the "usb wire"(dont know what that is called) running into my glove box.

    I am either going to use double sided tape or some sort of glue. I have not decided yet. Probably going to go with double sided tape though.

    So give us a review of the JVC KW-XR810. I have been waiting for someone to install one of these and give me some feedback. I am particularly interested in how well the unit works with an Ipod.
