sucks that it's delayed a little longer but that does speak volumes about how much they value Quality.

Can't wait to see Cesars when it comes out

"Released" and "in your hands" are two very different things. My guess, no way in hell you'll have it done and installed by the 20th.

ah suck, well i can still hope, if im lucky i will recieve it the 19th and install it that day, thats if i am very lucky lol, im also thinking i may be one of the first to get it since i am going for a single din and most people on here seem to want the double din so i think i have a good chance.

Not really. They'll probably figure DDIN is going to be in higher demand so they'll manufacturer more of those.

Still waiting from canary to see if he can set anything up. If not there is no news on my end. But from what I hear the kit should be in manufacturing and will be shipping soon. (It is not shipping yet to distributors)

My guess is it's just a call telling you that its gonna be another 2-3 weeks until they ship. Basically - hold your horses.

lol you need to read more of this thread

i dont know if they will have enough to ship out everywhere ie: best buy, frys, for you to just go out and buy it, installers is a site people pre ordered it from, i dont know who else is getting dibs on these kits to sell to consumers, or when you will be able to pick it up at a dealer such as frys or best buy, and if you mean the guy as in installers they are a company in houston texas they are a online based company not a company you can just go to and buy stuff like a frys and best buy

I'm sure they'll start popping up in most brick and mortar stores in around 2-3 months.
