So, after waiting and not having stuff I needed and not being sure the car was *worth* a new cd player, I've decided it is and finally got that mo fo installed. AND, it works. But now, having proven to myself that I can do it myself, if there happens to be a next time, you can bet your ass I'm paying the $40 and getting them to do it. Just the wire harness and the faceplate cost like $30, then I had to figure out what the hell to do with them. Now I just have to figure out how to set the clock and radio stations. But this one is much more user friendly than the Pioneer one I had. That one was nice, but it was too high-tech. This one has knobs! They don't actually turn, they sort of twist and you hold it one way or the other and it goes up or down, so they're like, high-tech knobs. Cool. Anyway, I have to hit WalMart before work to see if they have cat antlers. ba haha, I love my kitties....they may or may not love me after this...
