Ok... I finally received my kit from Suncoast last week. Took a very long time to be delivered, not sure why.

There are several boxes in the "kit" containing a wiring loom and a tray insert to go into the lower armrest cubby. And some bags of plastic tie wraps.

And not a single page of instructions. So I found a video on youtube showing how to remove the radio face trim, radio, and center console trim, and glovebox. Which I did. You have only one place to plug in the two loom jacks on the back of the radio.

Then you thread that sucker under the center console and remove a pre-perforated section on the cubby floor and plug into the new supplied tray which incorporates the ipod/USB jacks. The new tray then screws down with three new supplied screws.

And voila' you are wired my friend.

I plugged up my ipod and the PCM "sees" it upon connection in the footer readout, but there is no "ipod" selection in the "Source". This is what you need to pay your dealership to turn on apparently.

If you have a bit of mechanical acumen, you should be able to tackle it the first time in 2 hours or less. I think I could do it again in 30-45 minutes, knowing now the procedure.

I supplied my VIN to the dealer that sold me the kit but didn't receive any special code as was noted on their website? So not sure what all that is about?

Going to head to my local dealer later this week to get them to flip on the ipod switch in the PCM and should be good to go.

Hopefully
