good point.. i originally got it because I was going to put my gauges where the hazard switch is... But after taking apart the dash.. it isn't possible with the base radio.. didnt want to waste it.

Why isn't it possible with the base radio?

There is a power wire that runs from the hazards to the controls of the radio.. In this pic you can see it.. its a flat thin white wire.. if you look above the word "Passenger" it runs right below the volume control. with that wire unplugged you cant turn the radio on..

At 00:18 it says:

"Real Carbon Fiber
3-D Texture"

Doesn't anyone think that the way they wrote that is a bit misleading.
