I used the new Metra installation kit which I mentioned in my previous post. I'm pretty happy with it. I also used the Metra wiring harness, but found that it wasn't really necessary since there are so few wires you can actually get from the factory radio plug. If I did it again I would have just taken ground, constant 12v and switched 12v from the likely unused telephone connector, which is where I had to take switched power from anyhow.
Illumination wire was tapped into from the back of the cigarette lighter. I wired the factory antenna power and amp turn on to the switched 12v output off the back of the new deck. I'm using the existing white/red wire in the factory harness as an amp turn on.

hmmm, interesting. How did you fish the wires from the HU to the Amp?
