Default Pioneer/Focal installed in a base model

Purchased a Pioneer 4000DVD model unit with XM tuner, IPOD interface and PAC wheel controler along with a set of Focal V1 speakers. Had it installed at a local shop for $350.
Sound is great and after comparing the Focals with the light weight speakers that came out, it's no wonder.
Shop said that the PAC didn't work as instructed but.. after some trial and error they "figured it out" and it works just like it did with the stock radio.
They routed the IPOD cable into the box in the console and the XM antenna is placed on the dash under the windshield so there was no need to stick it on the roof.
They said that other than having to figure out the PAC, the install wasn't any different than a 350 with no issues.
For you guys in S. Arizona the shop is 'The Specialist' on Thornydale in Tucson.
