    Should be straight forward. Once you have removed the headunit the storage pocket should pop out easily. Fit the trim, cage and booster (the blue lead goes to the remote on wire which you will also need for the amp). There should be a grommet or 2 on the passenger side which will allow you access to the engine bay.
