Default installing a new deck

Hey my beautiful 4.0 Lovers I have a question...[&:][&:][&:][&:][&:][&:][&:]

If I bought a new Deck and wanted to install it myself is it that hard? is it just a matter of removing the old one and installing a new one? will there be wires that I have to splice or something? lol

btw no subs or other things like that...just the deck alone.

thanks!

p.s. I love you

VERY easy to do!!

Just get the right mounting kit for the new deck, as well as the correct harness.
Make the connections and just swap them out, replaced mine Wednesday night in about 45 mins!

Just a word of advice to anyone wanting to swap decks, Crutchfield does have great customer service, but their prices are WAY HIGH!
Shop around! I saved $300 on my deck and got the free mounting kit and harness!
