Finished Installing My new HU and HUmount!! pics! So I finished installing the whole thing last night and I'm very pleased with how well it came out! It looks good, I was worried about changing the stock HU but with it all together it flows very nicely. The all Red illumination is very awesome. Just thought I'd show it off!

i had an older alpine that had a close design and it fit with the flat bezel and it looked good then i got a pioneer and i had to use the one that sticks out a bit but it still looks ok.
i been wanting a new alpine but they dont have built in eq's

Hey do you have all the necessary items for installing the HU to our car.. Meaning what wiring harness do i need? and anyother misc stuff?
Do you still have the Alpin HU goign thru your original speakers? If so how does it all sound?
Also what model # is that Alpine HU?

Did you need a head unit installation kit as well as the HUMount? I'm installing mine right now and I don't see how the HUMount will be sufficient to hold the deck in there without some sort of other bracket propping the deck up in the back.

I like the way it looks.. might just buy some as well. Gets old changing CDs often when I can just have an MP3 cd or Ipod playing.
OP, curious to know the answers to TORCHD questions as well. I'd like to do a similar install when I get around to it.

So yes that is all you would need. I did take sandpaper though and sanded the inside edges of the white plastic bracket so the headunit metal sleeve would fit.
I would not install the headunit without using the metal sleeve it comes with.

I just did mine, and its not any different than using the cheap plastic installation brackets that crutchfield gives you with a headunit.
