o yea, as far as fitting it in, i had to rotate the antenna plug off to the side to get in the hole. that wouldn't let it plug in all the way. once i got it in the hold, i had to reach up from the glove box to put the antenna in all the way and to pull the adapter wires from out behind the stereo.

not sure if that all makes sense, but basically it wouldn't go in all the way b/c a bunch of wires were jammed behind it

Thanks everyone! I got the adapter and just got her all hooked up and she sounds great! It was easy and it was done right. I appreciate all the input!

Thanks again!

This forum is pretty good at saving you time and money! I didn't get a chance to reply before, everything I had to say was already covered. Glad you got-her-done, and done right.

only other thing to add: if we save you money a few more times, consider becoming a supporter. i figured $10 (or whatever it is)...i think i paid ~$40 for 3 years which is no longer an option. anyway, $10 is well worth the money everyone here as saved me.

no need to start a supporter/non-supporter argument, just pointing it out
