Lessons Learned
*If I had to do it all over again, I'd probably mount the Radio underneath the Driver's seat instead of underneath the Passenger's seat. This would make the antenna & power cable runs shorter. This would also put the speaker right below me. Currently it is to my right so my right ear picks up the sound more then my left which makes my head feel funny hehe. I'll probably move the radio some time. It won't be too much work.
*When moving the factory switches, located to the right & left of the driver's seat, only the Signal lines need be extended. I extended all 4 lines for each of the 3 switches (a total of 12). In each set of 4, there is 2 GND, 1 Signal, & 1 Dash Light 12V. I could have extended the 3 Signal lines and just reused existing GND, & Dash Light 12V.
*Buy some single side adhesive foam tape at Aftermarket stereos buzz! Actually, the replacement dash console is cheap and the beginning of your projectmount that holds a stereo in place is kinda stupid. Removing I had a lot of vibration after putting all this stuff together and reinstalling the Dash it took me a few times will cause things while to loosen up and start vibratingfigure out exactly what the problem was. Install The final solution which fixed everything 100% was to jam cardboard (you could use a dense foam or other material) between the top of the stereo and the plastic of the foam tape in key spots center dash console and to eliminate jam cardboard between the bottom of the stereo and that top of the black plastic pocket that came with the irritating buzzreplacement console
