As for making it flush, drill your own holes for the screws on the bracket to flush the face with the trim, then just cut pieces of the scosche trim to fill in the resulting gaps.
Can you please post a picture of your install?

do two of the plugs stay unplugged after the install?

EDIT: i connected everything and the HU wont start. I measured the voltage between yellow & black then between red & black with a digital volt meter, the reading was kinda weird. It was reading many different numbers between 8 up to 13 volts on both yellow & red. it just keeps on changing between 8 to 11 then down to 9 up to 13 and so on.

So i tested the red & yellow again but with using the body as a ground it read 12.5 or so (cant remember but it was constant). I tabbed the stereo ground to the body and it booted up right away.

1- Any idea why the ground from the harness is not working?
2- Is it safe to tab it to the body?
3- do i tab only the stereo or do i tab the stereo on the harness ground to the body?

Does anybody know how to bypass the bose amp? I went through this install using a Pioneer P3300bt and pac roem nis2 and I am now trying to install subs. I was told that bypassing the bose amp would allow my headunit to power my speakers so that my subs could also be hooked up to the unit. Anyone have any imput?

Connect the two black wires together (head unit harness and PAC harness), then screw the black wire into the U frame right under the headunit and behind the ash tray. I used a self tapping screw.

This is my post from another thread:

The ASWC is a pretty easy installation. I plugged the 3.5mm wire into the wrong plug on my headunit and found that to be the problem hours later. So, make sure all your connections are correct. It's a good idea to use the headunit's plug and not hard to make. The hardest part is taking it off the circuit board. Pictures below to show how easy it is.

Once you have all your connections and double checked them, turn the ignition to "ON", after hold the VOLUME UP BUTTON (on the steering wheel) until the red light on the ASWC stops blinking. Your wheel controls should be working after it continues to blink for a few seconds.
