Ok got the radio in today, for the most it is plug and play.
 You will need a cutting wheel or dremel, below the center vents is a portion of plastic that needs to be cut out (the instructions point this out). As for the wiring it is straight forward and easy. What I am looking at now is where to place the GPS antennae, which is a pain with out a snake or taking the dash out. I'm trying to put the Antennae near the defrost vents at the front of the dash.  this pic shows the portion that you need to be cut.  this is no longer used, the harness you use has a CAN interface. The only thing that I can use is the display at the bottom of the speedo and tach (mine has never worked except for fuel range or for throwing a code. I will post more pics with graphics tomorrow after I finish installing it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

From what I understand with respect to OBC, is you need to set the items you want displayed on the gauge cluster BEFORE removing the stock radio. Then when you hit the BC button on the signal stick, you can scroll through what you made visible at the time of removal. That's about all you get OBC wise. We'll see how this install goes and if that is the case.

Sorry I tried adding graphics but it wouldn't let me up them from the computer
Below shows the crossmember removed, I cleaned the cut job so it looked better than this.  Next shows the Ant on my X, to install I had to modify the bracket.  Modified  Where I placed my gps ant, I routed it through the center vent and placed it here.  Where I placed the mic for the phone, it works good and is out of the way and hidden by the steering wheel.  And final install  Overall it was plug and play except for the mod on the bracket.

pquast1, You can place the GPS antenna inside the dash. Signal goes through the plastic dash perfectly fine. I place my GPS antenna inside the dash just above the center vent. so no antenna is visible, nice and clean...
