I have access to tools. Am I good to go or do I need to buy something else? Thanks for input! :]

I'm not a big fan of that dash kit. I recently put one with my a XAV-AX1000 in my 01 GS430 and I'm swapping it out for this one:
The trim plate with the one you have has this rounded feel to it as the stock radio is flat. When you slide that new head unit in you will see what I mean. You will also need to tap into the factory speakers from the plugs that go into the amplifier, back behind the glove box. There is plenty of documented information in these forums to guide you. Best of luck!
