Default Double Din Non Navigation Radio

Since I bought my Jaguar I have missed the fact that I have no GPS, Bluetooth, and my music was limited to CD's or using an FM modulator to connect my iPhone or iPad mini. So I finally broke down and purchased a Pioneer FH-X720BT. This is a double din unit with Variable Colors for the Display, MP3, Bluetooth with microphone, and can be integrated with my steering wheel controls. I purchased a Metra 99-9501G mounting bracket, Metra 70-9500 wiring harness, and a Metra Axxess ASWC-1 to integrate the steering wheel controls. I am waiting on the wiring harness to be delivered by here is a picture of the unit in the mounting bracket and a picture of the axxess unit. I hope to have the harness tomorrow and finish the installation. This radio will let me use my ipad mini as both my GPS, MP3 and internet as well as still be able to pair my iphone and make calls.

Ok sorry for the picture problems, but I finally got that straightened out and here is the unit installed. Works great and as an added bonus, the USB port on the front will allow me to connect my ipad mini and use its GPS. the sound plays through the car. It also lets me control the music with track select and volume. The Source button on the radio will also let you launch Pandora on the ipad! I am uploading a video to youtube, that i hope to share later. Here are the images.
