1. How difficult is the installtion? Is there anything I should be aware of when installing?
2. I noticed that crutchfield sells it with the harnesses and dash kit. Would it be better to buy from crutchfield or buy everything seperately (since I have read that the dash kit they give you doesn't sit right with the ac controls)?

Thanks in advance!
Hopefully everyone has steered you away from Crutchfield. (however they do have an awesome support team) I got the same deck from Amazon $100 cheaper. As far as the dash kit, I used the OEM one. Check out the pics on page one of this post. I did not have to modify it and it sits flush without any gaps. Plus you don't have to worry about the AC control issue. Installation was rather easy.
