Before:




Tearing it apart


After.. (SOO SMOOTH)

Nice install. Did you have to drill through the OE dash piece as well or were you able to snake it through w/o doing so?

That looks pretty damn clean Jason! Did you end up using the iPhone/iTouch adapter so you can control your music through your Honda head unit?

Thanks!

I used a body reemer to make a hole in the panel - I made the hole in the smallest panel that would work so should I care to change my set up I will spend less than $40 on a new one

Thanks Sneek.. It took a few hours to get it just right.

I can control the volume by the steering wheel and the tracks by the itouch.

With the "dip switches" that are on my DICE module you can either control the tracks via the steering wheel or the itouch but not both. Since I love the itouch interface (which is why I mounted it in a visible area) I choose to use the itouch for selecting the tracks and the steering wheel/ head unit for volume control.
