Ok i just bought a alpine 9815 the other day and I installed all the wiring perfectly, but when it comes to mounting it, it seems like it just doesnt fit in the stock bracket well, not to mention the screws connecting the bracket to the stock deck were some of the tightest screws ever, it took me like an hour just to get them all out and in the process I broke 5! screwdriver tips!!!!! But my question is what is the best dash kit for the 2000 maxima gxe with premium sound becasue the one i bought does not fit at all. And also the antenna wire doesnt even plug into the alpine deck(I guess I need an adapter.Thanks for all the help. Thanks for the help..

 

first of all, excellent purchse. i have the 9815 and i absolutely love it. second, i have a gxe also, and i have the stock gxe (non bose) dash kit/trim. Ill try and borrow a friends digi cam to get pics up. Also, this piece is almost $100 even from Dave B. since it is attached to the air vent thats above the radio. Lastly, I moved the radio to the bottom DIN and the storage to the top simply because it is easier to reach and i liked the look of it a lot better.

Yes, you do need an adapter for the antenna wire, any audio store will carry this product, just make sure you specify which end is male/female because they gave me the opposite of what i needed one time.
