It's cake to install.
The hardest part I ran into was getting the power wire through the firewall.

Just make sure you run the power and the audio signal down separate sides of the car.

Ha!
Yeah, I tried that. Ended up having to make a very small cut in the rubber grommet in order for it to fit. I can't remember off the top of my head the gauge of the wire, but it was thick.

As for running the signal and power on different sides of the car, I understand that the signal is only going to the HU. What you don't want is the signal wire next to the power wire due to the extra electric "noise" that can be produced from the electric wire.

Therefore, I ran the signal wire down the drivers side and the power wire down the passenger side.

I also forgot to mention. Make sure you have a fuse of proper size and make sure it is installed LESS THAN 18" from the battery. The closer to the battery the better.

Here's some cut and dry install instructions:
