plug in the two iso connectors (although it might be one big one)

put the alpine "cage" in the hole and bend the bits out to keep it still. then push the headunit in while keeping the wires and stuff out of the way

thanks cambridge, but thats not my problem only half of it.

its all wired up, cages already in, cant get the damn thing in, theres no space for all the wires, glove box is already out but cant see any openings so i can move the wires around whilst pushing the head unit in at the same time.

how do i cut away or take out the middle of the vents thingyy, the black pipes for the vents?

I take it the cage isn't bent or anything?
You've got the cage over the unit before you out it in...?

You don't want to get cutting any pipes or vents either...
