New HU and backup coming soon

[sgtowing]

Well, I bought a Pioneer AVH-P8400BH radio and a backup camera to put in my Ex. I also bought a steering wheel interface as well. All I have now is the radio. The SWI, camera, mounting ring and wire harness have been bought and are supposed to be shipped. I hope to have everything in next weekend. I won't have the stuff in time for this weekend

sounds like a pretty sweet setup, I can't wait to get my new head unit and highs.

Speakers, amps and sub are gonna have to wait for now. Need more $$$$$$

Man ain't that the truth bout the $$$$$, being layed off sucks. I get unemployment but no room for truck parts in the budget.

I just found out I won't be able to get the camera I wanted. They said it is on "back order" after the guy told me they had them in stock.

Install pics

Well, the radio is in and works great. Here are a few pics. I have to admit that taking the dash apart wasn't anywhere near as bad as I thought it was going to be.

The stock setup.


The dash apart and the radio out. Not to dirty back there.

What I found on the bottom of the stock radio and what it says.

Last, all put back together

DAMN that's nice!

Does your BT work automatically if you are listening to the radio and a call comes in?

Thank you and yes it does.

I was under the impression that the HU I bought would, then I was told by the installer that none of them do and that they would need some relay etc.

I might just swap mine out already.

I'm referring back to the manual again now
