What about the wiring harness? I will be installing aftermarket amp for all the speakers including sub.
Also does anyone know if any of the eclipse products will fit? I was thinking about their double din navigation or dvd line. Thanks

as for someone stealing the unit, its as easy as it goes in. i can do mine in less then 2 min with a screwdriver, heh.
i have the same exact setup i love it. just had it installed over the weekend. can't go wrong with the oem aristo kit from carson well worth the money

They installs look super. I would love to upgrade my GS430 "Premium" sound... it is not very good at all.. my old GS400 Nak system is 10x better than "Premium".. but I get worried about wiring, cutting etc. I'd like a system that can be put back to stock relatively easy, any hopes for that?

Search is your friend...
even though there is still some wire cutting involved...you can still use one of the meta harnesses and with that I believe you only need to cut a few wires and t-tap others...There are a few DIYs I've seen for the Avic D3..

Very clean install. I almost wish my GS didn't come with Nav. so I have an excuse to upgrade from a stock Nakimichi to an aftermarket Nav.

Looks sweet! The aristo DD kit is the way to go hands down. Does anyone know how to get the factory changer to work w/ the D3?
