GENERAL INSTALLATION APPROACH:
1) Decide upon system configuration and options that will be installed
(i.e.: what components, VCP, Tuner, RF Modulator/external amp, re-
mote headphones, DVD, etc.).
2) Review all manuals to become familiar with electrical requirements
and hook ups.
3) Decide upon mounting locations of all components and method of
mounting.
4) Prep the vehicle by removing any interior trim necessary to gain ac-
cess to vehicle's wiring as well as all areas where interconnecting
wire harnesses will need to be located. If any access holes need to
be cut into the vehicle (headliner, other trim components etc.), this
should be done now as well.
