Check out Pioneer forums.

 

cool, thx

 

It's not that hard at all. It just takes patience and the right parts. Do a search, the directions can be found on this board, a member wrote step by step with photos-what a great help. It took me about 3 hours to do and everything worked. I even did the by pass so you (passenger) can watch dvd's while driving. The only things I have to go back to install is the bluetooth module (national back order), and hook up the reverse wire and nav. atenna.
The hardest part of the install is getting everything to fit back (all the wiring harnesses). However, after doing this once, it's a breeze to do again. Just make sure you have good screw drivers and one that's magnetized so that you won't loose screws.

BTW, I decided to do this mod myself after my terrible experience with Best Buy-which is why I got a free Avic-D3 (ok I paid $73.00)!
