just take your time and make sure you match up all the wires and use the proper kit for the car and you should be ok, its not that hard if you have the right kit and right tools for the job. dont forget to use butt connectors on the wires dont just twist and tape them together

Thanks.......If I use the correct wire harness, I should not have to cut or splice any wire for the head unit right??

Pay perticular attention to the part about the voltage regulator.

Doc, I hope to be able to avoid this due to the fact that my factory was only the basic 4 speakers with no amp!

Joe,

Congrats on the Kenwood. I'm looking at this very model as an option. I love the classic dials it has. Looks modern but retro at the same time. Classy and understated, not one of these crazy techno head units. It should look beautiful. Can't wait to see pictures!
