WRX radio install

has anyone done this recently? I need a few pointers and tips as to what to buy, where, and any extra tips regarding the installation.

I've had it with this useless stock head unit, it played my cd a few times, with lots of skips, now it just keeps spitting Dark Side of The Moon out at me.

thanks

Re: WRX radio install

Very easy install, especially with svxdc's harness adapter. As I recall, you'll have to cut out part of the back of the cage, cut back to one antenna( from the oem diversity setup), the rear one, and good to go. Nice upgrade!
