Hey guys and gals, I have a small dilemma here. I'm looking at installing a dual din touch screen unit with GPS/satellite/USB/bluetooth, yada yada...Problem I'm running into is the wiring harness. I'd rather use a reverse harness from Metra or Scosche in case I sell the car and decide to revert to stock beforehand. Problem is, I can't seem to find a harness that will let me retain the premium sound and factory spare tire amp. Does anyone have a p/n or ebay link to a harness that will work? I'd rather not hack and cut at the factory wiring if I don't have to (bad experiences in the past with other cars, radios and dash lights not working properly, etc afterwards)... Also looking for the dash kit as well... Or does anyone have these items laying around that they'd be willing to get rid of?

One more thought, is there a way to swap the steering wheel over from another Mazda of the same era that has the steering wheel controls? Thats one thing I'd love to have again that I miss dearly from my days driving my old Subie SVX :p

Thanks in advance!

Bump. Anyone?

1 more question on adding steering wheel controls...could I swap in a steering wheel from a Mazda3 that has steering and cruise? Does it physically mate up to the P5 steering hub?
