After I saw the pic, I couldn't wait to see if you were going to post something about it.... lol

Yup, you did...

I can see where hes coming from. I let best buy install my head unit in my 92 corolla before i got the stang and before i knew anything about cars. Within 2 years I had to rewire everything and reinstall everything because of those same crappy connectors that you used. It probably didnt help that they didnt even mount any of my speakers or head unit, they just laid them behind the dash and screwed the dash back in hoping that the dash would hold everything in place.....

I do appreciate the write up though! If you get some free time, you should solder those connections. If you haven't done it before, its actually kind of fun. I just spent an hour yesterday resoldering all the connections to my sister's subwoofer amplifier because somehow she managed to roll the thing upside down and rip all the wires to shreds.
