That's pretty good for a certified mechanic. Most of them around here won't even touch a remote start. You got to love Ontario and their stupid laws huh.

98 gm pickup. Pull the dash bezel off, push down the 2 tabs, pull the deck out, snap in the kit (push in only) plug in harness, ant adapter, slide in deck. Not 1 screw.

^ Where's the part with the hammer and the 14" screwdriver so you can bust out the rear support that is keeping the deck that 1/16" away from clicking in

Or is that just every OTHER GM POS on the road [img]graemlins/puke.gif[/img]

I agree about the sunfire deck, easiest I've done before, but I've had mine in and out a dozen times so its nothing to me anymore. Makes me wonder why I'm so lazy I wont take it out to connect the antenna adapter.

I used to always solder when doing decks, but at work we use butt connectors, and tie-strap on either side of the connectors (both sides of the harness) to relieve any tension on the connection. If you can pull on it with quite a bit of force and it does not come apart, it should be fine in your dash, where there should be no tension on the harness, no? [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
