Default Help Installing my new AVIC D2

I just received my AVIC D2 and am going to try and install this thing. Any pics, tips, links or info would be great. How did everyone modify the metal cage behind the console surround is my major concern.
Thanks in advance.
Steve

Thank You..yes I read it a few times. Very useful info. Just curious if all I need to do is re-position the top bracket in the metal cage a bit lower??..aside from the surround modify of course. I did set it in there and I love the way it looks!

no problem, wish i could help you more but im not too familiar with this HU. Ive followed a few and the only thing ive heard about the brackets is maybe cutting them a bit for more room. nothing of repositioning them. good luck, again i wish i would have been a better help. hopefully someone else will see this. maybe scott_fx. he put in a touch screen. they maybe similar in size.
