Re: stereo removal
I know someone has posted something about how to splice into the stock HU and run an Ipod, but not really sure myself what to do. Yeah that radio ipod thingy works alright, but it still sounds like it's a radio station, and usually not a good one at that.

To get to the back of the head unit is very easy. You have to take your two side panals off by your feet, your center console (stick shift area) off and then I think you have to pop the piece off over the radio to get to the 4 screws that hold the head unit in. After all that it should just slide out. I think I can get mine out in like 5 minutes now. Easy job! About the slicing of wires, your on your own there...good luck with that one.

there are only 2 screws on bottom of center garnish (near the cubby hole)
take those out and pull it offm (there are spring clips holding on top) Unplug the hazard light button and youll see a bracket holding the stereo unscrew and your set (at most 6 screws)
