Problem is there is no RCA out like on the bespoke. I'd prefer to keep the stock head unit and I would like to see what they do with the car.

You can either use an SNI-35 or SNI-50 from PAC to tap the speaker wires and give you RCA outputs or depending on the amplifier you can run speaker wires to it and some have inputs.

My brother and i were going to do the installation . I emailed them about fit meant and they said they hadn't gotten one yet so I volunteered. I'm just mad because they haven't gotten any info yet because they don't have the "demand" for it.

metra has the harness and the surround, scosche has the antenna adapter.

Why are people even using Crutch field? You want to buy stuff to install yourself....why pay such high prices when you'll be taking the car apart anyway? Check the owner threads and diymobileaudio.com. We already have a ton of info available. This is one of the easiest cars I've ever worked on!

Is the bktoyk996 kit available anywhere yet? Can't seem to find it...

The mounting brackets look very familiar to the mounts for the impreza... Has anyone tried that yet? I have a wide double din to std single din bracket for a 2012 impreza ready to go, just waiting for The BRZ to get here to see if it fits.

Does the BRZ nav unit use the Toyota harness?
