I received my package in perfect condition and the stereo is very easy to hook up! I replace my factory 2005 vibe system and it works great!! The only thing is the fill in plate for the space in front is short on both sides a little, but I love it!! Ordering was as easy as 1 , 2 , 3 and fast to !! This is a clear sounding system!!
