If you go with one of the 'mat' products (ie: not spray-on), I'd recommend going with one of the butyl-based products rather than asphaltic-based. The asphaltic-based stuff is more prone to melting/detachment due to high temps, not to mention the increased 'stank' factor. You'll find that the...

That looks awesome! Stitching is killer.... I'm assuming that by 'upholstery shop', you mean like a furniture-type place? And not the typical auto-upholstery place?

That's a crusty dashpad??? This is a crusty dashpad.... I'm waiting for it to come out on it's own in a million little pieces :)

x2. I love Parts Express! I have some of their 7" Daytons in my Dakota.

X2. 75$ certainly sounds reasonable given the price of new ones. Just remember to protect it so that it doesn't suffer the same fate as the previous one. And if your current dash pad isn't in that horrible of condition, you could probably find someone else who is willing to take on refurbishing...

I had decent luck with StockInteriors on a previous install. If I did it again, I'd get the upgraded 'mass backing' option as their 'base' model is lighter than stock (although easier to install). They'll send you free samples, too, so that you can try to match up color. Previous comments on...

Glad to hear you got it figured out :thumbup:

Light to the head unit is provided via the power source. I believe the orange (illumination) wires on newer head units are often for dimming capabilities. For example, you dim your interior dash lights and the stereo lights dim as well. Not all cars would have this capability, so I would think...

After reading your post again, this is how I understand that you've connected things: RED (dash) - YELLOW (head unit) ORANGE (dash) - Illumination wire (head unit) I don't have the wire diagram for your car, but it's entirely possible the orange dash wire is actually equivalent to a newer...

Was there not a red power wire on the Kenwood head unit? If I recall correctly, the head units will typically have both red and yellow: Red for main power, Yellow for a constant small draw (to keep the time and radio presets). Also, I think orange wires are typically for dimmer control. I'm...
