Pioneer and Metra

I'm getting ready to install a Pioneer AVIC-Z110BT with a Metra Kit. Any tips or concerns I should know about?

The main thing is to ignore where their manual says to cut the dash. Will save you frustration of the wires not fitting.

Also, if you have the BA system, do not use the high level speaker wires, plug your RCA's from the Pioneer into the Metra.

Oh, and set the gain on the metra for the chimes about 1/3 turn.

These are the things I wish I knew before I started.

Lastly, make sure there's no kids in the area.

No issues so far. Except when a call comes in everything temporarily shuts down till you end the call.
