Do you have any daylight pictures yet? I have been looking into this unit along with some headrest monitors. What accessories did you get to go with it. I am looking at Sirius and Ipod.

I'm a Kenwood man but I do like that radio. A few weeks ago I sent my buddy to www.kcautosound.com and he ordered it from Travis. The menu systems have always been straight forward and simple with Clarion. Travis even wired the harness up with the toggle switch for video bypass for us. I simply had to just mount the radio and connect a wire for the steering wheel adapter and it was done. For a non-navigational radio I liked it alot. He also purchased from Travis the Polk Audio MA1100.5 five channel amp to run off it with some Polk speakers. That is a bad *** amp!!! Now I gotta get me one...lol

Thanks for all your info...

went ahead and bought one this weekend along with the siruis scc1 connect.

Question is did you install yourself? If so how easy, and did it come with everything to do the install?

Wiring harness, trim rings etc...

yea, thats insane. honestly, if you're willing to twist a few wires together, you might as well do it yourself. its really not as difficult as it seems. just get a wiring harness and trim, match the colored wires and shove it back in. my 2000 150 is torn up right now, so if you need some pictures as a reference i can take some
