my issue was the same. I went with the Metra (eventhough I thougt the Scosche just looked WAY more professional, this was at a time when they weren't on the market yet). Being impatient, I bought the Metra (because I did like the fact that I could color-match the top illumination to match the Cyan OEM color (as well as the footlwell lightng).
Everything worked just fine with Metra for about two years. Then all of a sudden, the BLUE color quit working altogether. No short, no anything. Red and green still work just fine, but BLUE (the color I really need) just doesnt work anymore. Obviously out of warranty, so I am stuck with a Metra in great condition, but no Blue capability. So now I want to rethink my original option of getting the touch-screen Scoshe...but am coming across too many horror stories! These things are way too much of an install-hassle to be swapping in and out, so I really want to make sure the Scoshe works well before I rip apart my console again! That being said, if anyone is interested in a perfecty fine working Metra (minus Blue illuination) feel free to hit me up.
