As you can see I used the 0 preset. I cant find enough stations for all the presets but 0 was easy to remember. Hehe.

As you can see it is flush mounted.

Here is a pic of it in the dark. It adds a bit of color. Hehe. This pic is not that great because of the glare but the play button is green, the cd thing spinning is orange the display is white. I like it.

Yes its about half the size. I put my cell into the other side. http://www.discountsjungle.com/sony2.html has it there if anyone wants to get it. I didnt buy it from them but I noticed they have the same unit I have. The reason for Sony is that I can control it from that module and the remote. Other types you can only use the remote.

Oh by the way I have the CDX-540RF. I think the CDX-555RF is the newer version to mine.

1) How did you hide the wire for the controller of the CD RF modulator? did you punch a hole through the back?

2) how does the RF sound compare to the CD sound?

3) how did you mount it into the space under the radio? are their brackets or did you use glue?
