I bought this kit and the bluetooth module for my 2003 Mazda Protege5 over a year ago. Installation was incredibly easy and only required a simple tool to remove the head unit. It has worked flawlessly ever since and I have really enjoyed using it. It is definitely worth the money and is more convenient than replacing the entire stereo. It is really easy to use and still uses the stock radio. Thanks GTA Car Kits for the great addition to my vehicle!

Just installed the wired car kit for my 2007 Honda Odyssey. Works flawlessly. Worth the money. The sound quality is very crisp and clear. Really a nice product. Excellent installation video on GTA website.
Thanks.

Hi all,
Just received my GTA Car Kit for my Protege5 (here named 323F) and absolutely blown away!
Was hesitating before purchase to switch the complete head unit into a full navigation with audio capabilities, but came to the decision that this unit suits best the oem interior so opted with the GTA.
Installation took 10 minutes or so, figuring out where to route the cables and have the iPhone connector was the toughest part.
Really love the kit and recommend anyone with an iDevice!
It shuffles your whole iTunes library like it would be a cd charger and the sound quality is way over the audio cd!
Thanks GTA crew for making this kit!
cheers!
