the hardest part for you guys will probably be running the wires under the hood or disassembling the center console to access the radio. it is very simple once we figured out what all the wires were for. they will all be explained in the video. it took me just under 3 1/2 hours to do the job, but we werent in any hurry and i had a couple interruptions. i think at the speed i was going should be comparable to what you guys will be doing. in reality, you could probably get it done in 2 hours if you have the right tools and you arent fumbling with AFTERMARKET PARTS installed in the center console......ice....

i would rate this on an install scale of 1-10 at about a 2. this ws for a 2012. i will be doing mine soon, but it is pretty much the same idea, however with the 13s there is an extra module but it seems that it just plugs in.

do it yourself. its not that bad at all. the instructions are not the greatest. as some of the info is not where you would expect it to be, but it is accurate

I was considering it... until i got the price from the place. $130 unfotunately my time is worth more than that lol.... It would most likely take me 2 times as long to do it myself as it would for them to do it. Plus i would have to wait until this damn snow goes away and it gets warm.... so that puts it somewhere in august lol jk

It is in.... and yes I have lots of aftermarket stuff but I like the stuff I have.... It does the following , Lets you input address while driving, front camera while driving, rear camera while driving, if you shift in to reverse while on front camera it switches to rear automatically, maitains GPS position while on other screens, DVD while in motion.. Thats what I can think of so far.. Video will be edited down to a managable size and posted... I did help with the installation, not by much... I have a 2012 not a 2013 so I have DVD...
