Default 4ES-2003 ES300 aftermarket stereo install

Just purchased my 03 es and wanna replace the stock stereo since the cd player is jammed. I almost have it all figured out.

I need to get the double din mark levinson faceplate

To remove the factory i need to first unclip the ac controls and remove them what's the best way to unclip the dash parts?

Then there are 2 screws I need to remove under the stereo unit and it should wiggle out

Once I get my new stereo in I need to use a couple of metra trim pieces to make up for the extra room. metra part # 95-8202

Then it comes to wiring. I've found no wiring harness that works although I read that the metra TYT0-01 worked for someone. Any suggestions?

And then the issue of the factory amp. Will I have to bypass it? If so will I lose my sub? Whats the best thing to do here?

Is there a DIY somewhere for this model? If so, I haven't found it yet

Thanks

I'm wanting to install the JVC-KW-XR810
