I went to Sound Waves in Parsippany right off 46, they hooked my my new head unit for me. I bought the Alpine CDA-9855 Its pretty tight i like the new glide touch features. So i payed for it when they had a sale but came in a few days later for them to install because they werent doing it that day. I come in that day(today). after the car had been there for an hour and a half the guy comes in and tells me that because i have the bigger radio in my car it takes up two spots and the new one will only take up one so they have to make a new mold for it. ( sry dont know what the spots are called ) So i said yeh thats fine. He said itll be another hour and a half. I said ok i guess i can wait and then he said and we have to charge you another 95 for the extra installation. i had already payed 500 for every thing else, and i thought 600 for a head unit was too expensive. so i said no and as im walking out the owner stops me and says that they will do all the installation for free. So i ended up getting 2 hours of installlation for free, not a bad deal and they did a great job with the instal.
Any one in the North Jersey area should deffinatly go check them out they run a legit store over there.

nice. what a deal!!!

 

Awesome, but you've gotta post some pics. I'm getting the same HU but I'd love to see one installed. I have the small stack radio though, so mine will probably be a better fit. Were you able to adjust the color display to match the color of your guages?

 

juju, yes the red fits perfectly.


EDIT: pics will be up in like 20 mins, just woke up lol ill go get some now

 

nice, i have an Alpine CDA9835 in my car, basically the 04 model of yours...great radio all around, and it matches the color, of course!
