If you do the install yourself, a writeup would be awesome. I know there are some others on here, but more is better. :-)

From this thread, the two most common places were the Austrailia based Carbon Car Systems and the Malasian based Fasmoto. I bought mine through Amazon via Fasmoto. I did this mainly because I was going for a locker delivery, but that wasn't available, and because Amazon's return policies give me piece of mind.
I am still trying to figure out what harnesses I'll need. From the thread above, it is hard to tell if this system is mostly plug and play with a few exceptions. It appears that there would be a need for an antenna adapter, the adapter to hook into the stock USB, and if someone has a rear back up camera with 6V like OEM then a 12v to 6V adapter. I'm still researching this.

I bought the Noico 80mil sound deadening mat (36sqft). I also bought tape and a roller. I plan on doing the doors and the trunk and then I will see how much material is left over. Did you do any of the plastics and did you do inside the door? I don't know if I want to pull the carpet, front seats, headliner, etc to do the whole car, but would imagine that I would need at least another roll or two to do that. What did you do and did you just do patches of matting or full covering? I hear that it isn't necessary to lay it down completely; 25% coverage on a panel might be enough to reduce 90% of what full coverage would do--something like that.
