the only thing that could possibly be different would be.

1. If you want need to ground a parking break wire for DVD play back

2. Navigation ( which your new radio doesn't have)

Also u may need to cut out the wall behind the deck for room for wires. I got the 4300 and had to do that. Mainly for the rcas.

also a toggle switch for the dvd ground

theres tons of modules to bypass that brake switch on ebay. or you could just wire it to the brake switch. i chose that route. just because i feel like itll get me in trouble otherwise and i dont really need to watch a movie while going 80 on the highway lol.

try the toggle on the brake ground wire .put the toggle in between the deck and ground point ,just switch it on and off.it works on soundstream decks too
