well i did try to install it myself and i attatched all the wires to all the colors but nothing worked. plus the one speaker wire i couldnt reach and i just figured id drop it off and if they mess it up its their fault. i know that it does look ugly but it doesnt really bother me however not having any radio stations at all pissed me off
Yeah i hear ya about the radio stations. How much did it cost? Kuz the kit cost me maybe 50-60 total for the wire harness, the dash kit and everything. With the money i saved i bought a JBL amp and 12"sub AND an enclosure

one thing i really like about the 97+ interior.. Its SO easy to change the HU.. I'm not sure how difficult it is in a 93-96 because i've never tried, but in my car i just pop off the trim, and then remove 4 screws under it and my cd player comes right out. So far i've changed it 4 times..[:'(]

total came up to 135, 45 for labor he also said something about hot wiring some wires im guessing that he meant soddering. the only reason why i went there was because circuit city wanted around 175 total, pc richards you have to make an appoitment and i just have bad luck with best buy. plus i thought this place is a stereo place thats all they do is stereos speakers, etc they must be good at it then. guess i was wrong[]

If your happy with the way it looks thats fine,
but you should go up there and ask them to hook up your antenna.
They can't tell you no or charge you more money, its part of the install.
They may charge you for a new antenna adapter but there real cheap.
It cant hurt to ask them to do it right......
