everything on the car is the stock mach 460 system, i just got this head unit, switched from the stock 6 disk. Not exactly sure how its set up but it sounds good. Im sure you could get it at a shop but it will probably cost more, sonic electronix is a great site and it came with everything.

The way to get it to play dvd's while driving is on the wiring harness there is a black ground wire that goes to the parking brake thats where many shops run it to and it want play unless the car is in park so you take the ground wire and put it to a solid ground not the parking brake so it can play at any time.

Apparently for some newer head units you need a switch, all the how tos for this one used a switch

You wont be able to buy that small wiring harness (the subwoofer harness) from bestbuy or places like that. Youll have to buy it from crutchfield or the place that was previously stated. You do need that wiring harness or you will not have any bass.
