Kenwood FTW...

Figures I have the older model without the accelerometer while we just put the new one (same model as yours) in my wife's Blazer.

If only they would make one with a Mudometer(tm)...

By the by, take a peek in my car some time to see what I did with the metra kit.. It's all flush, including the surrounding bezel, if you're into that look.

The right one . If it would have been braking, it would have shown "-1.14G"

I'm pretty sure I can accelerate faster than I can brake, my brakes suck ***. Rebuilt like 10k ago with new seals and all that, new fluid, new pads 500 miles ago.. There is no chance in me locking up my tires in the dry.

Damn where were you 2 years ago? I have never really liked the way this adapter pushes the deck out, but I don't think I am going to have this player in there for much longer. Someone else should jump on that deal.. SeaHawk, your setup looks really nice, looks like my old Kenwood deck before it broke. It would flip around when you turned the car off, best feature about it, but also the part that breaks lol.
