Pioneer AVH-P8400BH

I tried to use the trim it was a mess! it didn't even fit around the stereo to use the 'removable screen' so I cut it to work, and then tried it on the stereo in the car and had more cuts it really was a waste from pioneer to include it, I like the skosche trim the no gap is a bonus! but can you reach the button with it on? I probably wont even remove the screen but its a nice feature?
Edit...
I looked closer at your pictures do you have the stereo further back? so you cannot even get the screen detached? hard to see how you did that, mine sticks out a bunch for the button.

@Top Teke, looks good! I bought the 4400BH and wonder if I'm going to have the same problem with the gap and the Pioneer trim. Is the trim from Skosche specifically for the 8400BH or do you think it will work with the 44BH too?
Can you link me to the trim? If it doesn't cost too much I'm probably just going to buy it.
Thanks!

And the motorized faceplate
Mikesta, are you using iPhone 4? I remember you said you didn't have factory bluetooth - I seem to get disconnected every so often and I'm curious if you've had the same problem?

Oh... I didn't know you could do it like that! this changes EVERYTHING I thought it had to be closed to unlock! so maybe I need to change my install spot. learned something new today
Now I don't know if to change it or leave it be. I prefer how yours looks compared to my install. but I would need the trim

Yeah I'm going to buy the scosh kit and use that I guess. sucks I didn't realize before but whatever it happens luckly my friend has amazon prime and can order it me.
I didn't do anything with the parking brake as I ordered the new relay thing hoping that works so I'll just take it all out at that point and change things. I did my backup cam last night.

I do! to tap in for the backup wire from the radio to only turn backup camera on during backing up, you use a purple wire from the driverside kick panel, there is a huge FAT black loom full of cables carefully open that up and look for a purple cable there is two one is in a smaller collection to the other, you want the other not from the small cable collection (I hope that helps) also test the cable when you do it to be 100% sure with a multi reader, Change the stereo setting to be battery so it only turns on when in reverse.
At the back of the car there is a rubber gromit feeding the tag lights, you can use that to push the cables into the trunk. I used the power from the backup light at the back of the camera so it only comes on during backing up its also a dark purple on the light.
I always wish I took pictures during install and never do. sorry I hope it helps though
