I've heard people (with AP2's) claim that they can remove the radio door and trim without removing the console. I've never been able to do so. It's not a big deal to remove. A dash removal tool helps but I've removed and reinstalled the console countless times without any tools.
Removal is covered on page 1. Install is a matter of getting a harness, wiring everything up properly and reversing the removal process.

Notes:
- I didn't remove the shift knob or unplug the hazard/roof/etc; I just pulled everything back a bit and had enough clearance. It was really pretty easy that way, so I'd recommend tryin to skip that step on the original instructions.

Anyone have some ideas (pics) on how to mount the cd player in place? I cant get the screws in when the cd player is in place, no room. JVC KD-AVX77.

Ahaha I was reading this and was like lol wut? You have to take the center console off? Old post... I installed my Alpine 9886 only removing the door and plastic holding in the radio. The only hard and time consuming part was soldering connections for the head unit :S.
Adding an rca to 3.5mm jack was easy in the s2k, just goes through the dash to the floor since we don't have glove boxes there.
