    Has anyone researched this or actually have accomplished an after-market install?

    I did but the standard, after-market wiring adapters have problems and the original radio has to remain in the car. The problem is the termination resistor in the radio is necessary for the multi-function display to work properly. The correct installation has been documented in another thread here.

    There are also issues with the aged, fracturing dash cover. Again, fully discussed in various threads here.

    However, mine includes a USB interface and bluetooth so I have no interest in backing it out. I would rather have the new receiver-head in part because I have better instrumentation than the MFD.

    Thanks Bob! Can you post some pictures? Also, can you direct me to that sub forum you were talking about?

    I know you're new here so I would recommend using the "Search" function. In the meanwhile, this may get you started:
