I can't leave well enough alone. I blame it on @Geoffsfas10

The more I think about it, and with that last 2 weeks of solid rain, I can't justify skipping out on an easier solution for a solid HID retrofit.

I leave my bottom bolts out. I can have both headlights out in 5 minutes, no problem.

Then again that just goes to show how many setup changes I've been through.....lol

Got everything that is Morimoto in today. Just waiting on my bright splitters and Depo headlights. The Depos should be here Monday.

FedEx is the shit. My Depo's got to the distribution hub yesterday, and there is no better way to get woken up by your Ring doorbell the night you lose an hour of sleep.....

Head unit is an Alpine iLX-W650, its a 7" screen. All I really cared about was Bluetooth and AndroidAuto. Alpine also has a small amp that easily interfaces with this head unit to get a little more power to the factory speakers, which I might end up doing when/if I upgrade those stock speakers.

Here is the installation kit I ordered. It is a nice kit, included everything I needed to do my install. Also retained steering wheel controls as well, and can easily add a backup camera. Also includes a phone mic with along cord, and comes with a customizeable chime box as well. Would definitely recommend this kit.

I don’t suppose you recall any details on that installation kit after all this time? The Amazon link is broken.

Sure do. Looked at the seller I got mine from, for some reason it appears that store doesn't sell the complete kit any longer. This is the double din installation frame.

And you'll need a factory wiring harness adapter, if you have steering wheel controls or plan to add them, don't forget that (labeled "SWC" usually in the ads. Make sure it comes with an antenna adapter as well, and also a door chime. The factory stereo "chime" for low gas, open door, headlights left on with key off, etc.......goes through the stock head unit. The kit I got is Metra, which keeps the SWC and stuff, and the audible chime is customizable for loudness, which is pretty cool. Metra is all plug and play, just solder or crimp your harness adapter to that of your aftermarket head unit, plug it all in, done.
