Hey folks...

I started a thread a few days ago about how crappy the headunit was in the Mach 460 set up. Well I decided to install a new headunit. The install was a breeze (30-40 min.) and the sound quality is the same if not a bit better (little more power). Seriously there was no loss in sound quality at all. The wire harness kit I used is by Metra, part # 70-5511 (20 bucks). It even has instructions with it. Here are some pics of the new headunit (the factory one is not hooked up, just to fool stereo theifs)

Ummm...

Not all cars. If you look at the pix of my install, where the new head unit is used to be the factory CD player. So I never had that piece
