Yep. My first install didn't look much better. But I wasn't working experimenting on someone else's car. It's a shame the original installer couldn't have just admitted that he wasn't up to the job instead of trashing the wiring.

Very true, however lucky for me I had my neighbor and my military father to make sure my first install went right. I did break the dome light and broke 2 clips in a civic.

This guy just tells his friend he can do it and starts cutting harnesses. Not at all good.

Yeah but I never did that to someone else's radio. Problem has been corrected. I don't feel bad laughing at it.
