Hey everybody. I just installed a Panasonic DF88. Man is it sweeeet!! It looks so cool at night! Only took 20 mins. Thank you Canadian Tire!! I bought a wiring harness adapter for $10, the install was a cinch. Next up, installing my Pioneer 500W 12" sub...need to build a new box.

cool man...

glad it worked out for ya. installing HU's is an easy task. doing it yourself will save you anywhere from 40-75 dollars.

oh yea, i really like the look of the Panasonic day/night decks. hooked one up for a rag of a gf i had at one time.

happy cd listening!!

Only took 20 mins

Just got in the house after spending an HOUR and not even getting the factory deck out. Never seen one w/o screws before. Did you use the special tool? One of the other coat-hanger/nails techniques? It was certainly no "cinch" for me.

thanks,

sorry to hear your troubles... I actually had a lot of trouble getting the deck out as well. I ended up breaking the faceplate off so I could see where I was supposed to put the damn coat hangers. I had two folded over on each side to make 4 end to push with. I pushed one side in, and then pulled to get it released. I then worked the other side. The only part of the install that was a cinch, was the installation of the aftermarket deck. I got a wiring harness adapter that made it really easy.
