Default new headunit goin in tomorrow

I can't wait, tomorrow I'm puttin in my new JVC KD-BT1 headunit, has full bluetooth built in, connect phone with it, and any incoming calls get directed through the stereo, i get tired of a little earpiece that the volume sucks on, plus with an M6 i don't have to try and flip from phone to shifting. Oh yeah, and also give the stereo some better sound/power.

yes that one does

any HU that uses an infrared signal (e.x. if your HU comes with a remote) supports steering wheel controls while using the PAC SWI-X.

This is the exact HU I'm thinking about getting!! Did you install it yet? Any pics? And also did you do it yourself and if so, how hard was it since I've never done this before?

Let me know and thanks in advance
