Thanks for the input. I finally got the system in. Still ended up with two extra screws LOL, but so far seems like everything but the DVD/APPs option is working. I didn't splice the e-brake sensor wire in since I'm going to go with the bypase module next week. BTW, grounding the green bypass wire DID NOT work on this unit.

I have the pioneer AVH P4300 and I used a 5 pin relay for the parking brake by-pass to work correctly

Yep, you need a relay like this.

Only works for the kenwood as far as I know.

Also hope you bought the warranty for your pioneer. Could have problems next year.

I certainly hope you're not still hung up on the pico fuse thing. 99% of those problems were operator error, caused by people pulling RCA's with the head powered up. I have used and installed Pioneer products for nearly 30 years, and have yet to come across One. And I've installed literally hundreds of their units.
By the way, they are not the only outfit that uses them, FYI
