Hey Srt when you install the head unit the wiring harness ground wire needs to be grounded to the body of the car. Luckily for us there is two bolts (10MM) one is facing us if you look through the gap from the HVAC and the right heat vent. But there is one where you can easily feel it off to the right that is upside down. Just take a ratchet and a 10MM socket and loosen it some and put the ground on it and tighten it back up. It was a little awkward but it can be done. The tricky part is holding the wire and tightening the bolt back.

Thanks for the info KARR, I might be doing the install soon.

Hvac panel is done and it is a perfect colormatch.


I plan on painting a couple more things so stay tuned....

Thanks guys. I was really surprised what color went into the paint and that their is absolutely no pearl in it. 2 diff maroon's, white, red and this mettalic gold. The actual color name is misleading (salsa red pearlcoat).

I plan on painting the trim ring around the cluster and the A and C pillars. I need a new left side A pillar because the one I have now is messed up so I was thinking getting one from TNS with the 3 gauge cutouts, we'll see..... Maybe the srt wing also......

Nice work. Like I said if you have any questions about installing that head unit let me know.
