Receiver installation advice

[shanahan]

I just ordered a Pioneer CD receiver from Crutchfield.com and they say that I'm getting everything I will need for the installation for free along with the receiver. From anyone's experience is this true and what should I expect. I've done electrical work before but I was just wondering if anyone had any advice, hints, or tips about installing this car receiver. It won't be hooked up to anything more than the power and antenna, no disk changer, satellite radio, or anything else. Thanks for your time!

The only major installation item not contained in the receiver's box would be a wiring harness adapter that will let you easily hook in to the stock wiring of your car. Typically those adapters are about $15... if you're getting one for free good for you.

Crutchfield sends everything you need to hook it up. That is if you gave them the right info on your car. I have purchased many items from them in the past and have been very pleased with the free accessories.
