do you know if he has a factory amp to power his stock speakers? if not then all u really need to do is go to walmart and buy a wiring harness, antenna adapter, and installation kit if he doesnt already have one.. though i would suggest getting an installation kit somewhere else because the walmart ones seem cheap but thats what i have in my car and it looks/works fine

anyways you just unplug the wires from the back of the stock deck.. and take that end and plug into the wiring harness(u need to make sure u get a wiring harness and antenna adapter that fits your car.. it says on the back of package... i got both of mine together in the same package for like $5 at walmart.) then u take the antenna adapter and plug it into the antenna slot on the back of the stock deck and then take the actual antenna cord that u will be unplugging from the stock headunit and plug it into the antenna adapter.... then you will need to put together the installation kit(if u get the $10-15 one from walmart like i did you will need to check the back again and make sure it fits with your car) which will hold your deck in place(because it probably isnt the same size as the old deck) and then screw it in..

if he does have a factory amp let me know and i can tell u what to do for that also

EDIT: put together the headunit installation kit first and get the headunit in the installation kit before you mess with any wires.. my bad

If it has the emergency thing (where u cant view dvds if its not in park or emergency brake), then all u need to do is hook up one more wire. It splices right into the emergency break sensor.

Not that simple if he wants to bypass the parking brake and watch movies all the time. PM me or aim me for a detailed description of what to do.
