So you're getting to do an "extended test drive".. That's good.. make up for the wrong that was done to you..

Insurance is paying for the rental. I just had to pay for tax, $7/day.

Oh, I see. Yeah I couldn't help myself. Amazon had it for $575 and I'm wanting better iPod controls. I hooked it up to my power supply and everything is in working order. Should be an easy swap. Pretty nice setup, boot is a little slow, but they have gotten it down to ~30 sec to iPod control. ~1 minute to full navigation control. Screen resolution is great, but I wish it was bigger.

I also put carbon fiber fabric on my spare double din kit. Turned out pretty good. Hope to get my car back soon.

What size screw did you use? I'm planning to have mine painted soon and I plan to install them myself. I just finished drilling the holes for the bottom and inside the wheel wells.

Also, what did you use for the areas that use clips i.e. under the front fender and rear quarter panel?

Thanks for the info!
