Replacement of the CDR-23 begins

Advantages over the Dension and other cd changer replacements, other thn a backup camera? Those seem more "PnP" to me. I'd hate to tear apart the interior running wires and such. How much did you have to remove for your camera run and is the camera HD? Install looks easy though.

I guess I want to know why this one rather than leaving in your stock head unit and simply replacing the cd changer....

With no additional amp and stock drivers the sound is 10x better? Not sure I get how that happens. Not try to be adversarial but I want to add BT and iPod integration and by using the cd changer connection I can easily add the Dension Gateway 500S BT I'm pretty sure to my 04CTT.
However, I have an iphone5.

The iPhone 5 will not work with this deck nor will it with any that I know of as of right now. Therefore, you should go a different route or wait...that we agree on. If I had your vehicle with the Bose system and a iphone 5, I would go a totally different route. You are going to have too. To add any additional audio to your system you will have to bypass the stock amp or use an expensive interface made for your vehicle. If you want to add to add Blue Tooth and iPhone integration to the stock set-up it is going to be expensive. The Dension Gateway 500S BT is over $500 and most of the other options are $600-1000. A top of the line head unit will do the same and a lot more for a lot less money (just bypass the stock amp and add an aftermarket one).

Thanks Duane I'm on the iPhone 4S for now at least until the spring..... Wife took the iPhone five. Dension Gateway 500 was what I had decided upon since my cd changer is dead. Wonder if the BT version is worth it.

Update: Finished up all the mounting and purchased the Pioneer CD-IU201V USB Interface Cable to play video from the iPhone through the reciever. This is a great deck. Just ordered the Infinity Basslink II for the lowend bass and will install it next week. I still have not had time to install the rearview camera due to work being so busy but that is also coming soon.

I thought that I read somewhere, the only thing you will have to do is run the power remote from the back of the new deck to the stock amp. I might be wrong.
There is this route http://www.crazystereo.com/navtv-mos...55-p-3918.html
if you have a MOST bose system.
