    No, sorry, no pics of the wiring. I will be glad to help, it wasn't hard and I have (original Pathfinder) wiring schematics I can send you. PM me when you are ready.

    The hardest part was the PAC SWI-PS and the Nissan/Infiniti Factory Integration Adapter. That was only because of all the damn connections involved! I did 95% of it outside the car. The remaining connections were modular with the exception of the 5 wires for the PAC and I used a terminal block for that since it also required resistors.

    yeah i am getting my subwoofers installed professionally, so they said they would set up the wiring for the computer power for me while they ar eon the job, and i got my screen finally, and it looks like all i really need to do is split like 4 wires, red power, black power, the acc (which is what tells screen to on i guess?) and ground. So basically i could just strip down the corresponding wires going to the head unit, and solder the new ones in there right? or am i missing something?

    That sounds about right, I don't recall which color went where off the top of my head. I used chasis for ground everywhere I could. Don't forget to slip the heat shrink tube on before soldering! I must have forgotten 5 times and had to undo the connection, slide the tube on, resolder, etc.

    To easily return it to "stock". I can just bolt the original head unit and CD changer back in. No custom dash work, etc. The motorized sacreen works great for me.

    I got it from CD Universe. It's a PS2 Mini-key keyboard made by Dreamgear. I think it was $15 when I bought it. Pretty cool.

    That same PS2 Mini-key keyboard is available at MP3Car.com, now.

    If just enough is really good, then too much ought to be perfect.
