k so i bought a new deck…(Pioneer DEH-P7800MP) and i looked at the install instructions and tried to do it myself. i have the piece for the deck surround and the wiring harness but yah i suck at mounting it!

so got it to work but i dont know how to mount it well. does anyone want to lend a hand?

if nobody can then ill take it to best buy and let them do it for me.

i can pay in beer or or something. let me know. thanks guys.

isnt the HU useless w/o the face plate? or can any faceplate work aslong as its the same model? i will just hang something over the dash and when i get a sub, im going to disengage the electric trunk release(take out fuse and unplug on the back of the switch hehe)

im going to invest in a car alarm that sound off inside and outside the car so even when u touch the car it goes off. and its so loud that its unbearable to whoever is in the car!(in other words it will drive them so crazy they cant stay in the car)  
OR i will try and wire the body of my car to some power source and make it electric! so i can zap anyone who even touches the car when its activated. lol

new head unit looks nice, I like the black on black. How much did that set you back?

My head unit is silver and I hate that it doesn’t match. But came with the car. it works, and is better than stock so until it breaks my dash ain’t matching! Gotta save my pennies

PS your neon is ghey :lol: (jk, u knew you’d get teased right)

1. No… You can buy new face plates of E-Gay
2. Faceplates from the same model family should fit each other.  
3 There is a metal switch on the bottom hatch witch you can flip down that will disengage you trunk release.

well i got a sweet deal on that deck its like $540 new and i bought it off a guy on the vboard for like 325$

-i got the deck which is 2 months old  
-the nissan deck surround for an aftermarket deck  
-wiring harness for sentra  
-some wires for attaching to amp  
-and a new antena cord which i didnt use.

haha w/e i thought the neons were a little custom touch, not to much rice.  
i dont care i like them lightens up the dash a night nicely.

what are some easy ways to keep my HU secure into my car?

- i know there are some little beads that u can hammer into the ends of the screws so u can unscrew them.
- what else is there to prevent theft?(besides welding it to my car)

You know if its bolted to the metal frame you will be fine… Evan at best it would take me about 2-3 min to get the deck out with using a sledge hammer or something… If someone really wants it they will get it.
