Took me almost 3 freaking hours...
2 of which was spent without sunlight.
Damn cable was a pain to route...

If anyone is thinking of doing this
yourself, watch out for the rear seat/trunk
bracket... damn thing is sharp as hell.
Ended up with about a dozen cuts.
And also there are brackets in the trunk
to which the trunk liner mounts (via plastic
snaps)... beware, some easily bend.

Anyways, in all, it was a sucessful install.

Changer - $312
Mounting Kit - $39
Both from Courtesy Nissan

I bought the Clarion Changer for the Bose Stereo.
I'm in Southern California but
Courtesy Nissan had the best price...
the price (including shipping) was significantly
lower than any dealer price around here.

If you order the changer from Courtesy (or Southpoint) it comes with step by step instructions and pictures to go with them

Yup, but the pictures are a bit fuzzy... Actually the instructions were just a bunch of xeroxed pages stapled together.

Didn't have a digital camera to take pics. sorry.
And I ain't about to tear the inside apart again...

good luck if you're gonna attempt the install.

Actually, it's not that difficult... just be careful with
all the plastic panels.
