Yes, the backup camera works great. After I got the reverse sensor wire working, it still wasn't coming on. I was going to open everything again and start testing wires when I thought maybe I should try the manual first. Couldn't find anything about the camera in the table of contents. So I started fishing around the controls and found where to turn the camera controls on. Then it worked great. It comes on when I go into reverse or I can just turn it on and leave it on while driving. That is great for when I have my trailer and can't see it in the center mirror.

I never had a center speaker to begin with. 6 disc changer option came with the 4 lower door speakers and 2 in the sides of the dash. So the center speaker location was free and wouldn't be used.

I noticed it when I had the old stereo next to the new stereo in the bezel. Yes, you can tell the difference in color, though it is really slight. This is the Scosche dash kit and I'm not very impressed with it. Maybe I'll see how the other members' installs look and change bezels. There is someone doing a Kenwood install who has the Metra kit. Maybe that looks better.

I'll be happy to answer them all. One of the neat features is the hands free voice command. I can control just about anything by voice. For the rest, I got a remote.

When you do get around to posting more, throw in some model #s.. i might just have to copy your setup  |
Yeah, no center speaker. Here is all the stuff I ordered:
SCOSCHE TA2073B - dash kit, might be replaced.
SCOSCHE TA021 - wiring harness bought at Wal-Mart
Pioneer AVIC-Z2 - NAV unit/DVD player
Pioneer ND-BT1 - Bluetooth control adapter
Pioneer CD-SR1 - Steering wheel remote. I plan to just use it hand held for now.
Coming soon will be a Dynamat type of product called eDead, door speakers and a sub.
