Thanks AK370Z for the write up, I used this info to install my Kenwood DNX9140 last night and it went pretty smoothly. The only odd thing I noticed is the mount that holds the stock radio - and that you have to re use and screwonto the aftermarket one - it is screwed on with TORX screws. I ended up using 7/64" allen wrench to take the screws out since I didn't have a TORX head screwdriver.

Also, I ran my GPS antenna, microphone, and PTT button up behind the steering wheel, but I'm looking to re-run the GPS antenna and make it look a little cleaner like yours. Did you run the GPS antenna on the right side because you took out the glove box to route it, and then took out the dash speaker to route the antenna up?
