hey man i just got a 7.2" lcd screen and i remembered that you had one in your car. i was going to ask what you wired the power too? i would rather not run it all the way to the battery. i also love your install with it, it looks so nice. im not going to do all that but great job man. thanks in advance for your reply.

This is better suited to a pm since it’s a pretty direct question 
Power sources: if you need a constant power source tie into something that's always hot (radio 12v, cig lighter, etc). If you want something that’s hot with the ignition on tap into something that's hot with the ignition on (radio ignition wire, etc). The best way to do it is to run a wire from the battery or from your distribution block if you're running one.

Just tap into the wiring behind the head unit like Gummie said. In my case, I have a dedicated line for all of my dash equipment that I ran from the fused side of my main power breaker, but most people don't do that.

Michael; Do you still have that CD deck for sale???
Maroon88, Do you still have that CD player for sale, along with the IROC wheels and tires, chrome valve covers and breather?
Did you actually use the G-Tech unit? I've been playing with my new one and it's a whole lot of fun just watching the differences even an oil change to synthetics can make!
If the deck is still available, would you have any extra quality speakers for sale that would replace my 18 year old factory ones????
