Sorry you are upset but you know that there is life other than on line!! The other items are software changes that require I believe the STAR system to install and I am willing to bet you do not have a STAR system. There is also some wiring additions and changes depending upon when in 05 your car was built. I remember that I had a firm quote for the install and it actually took them better than 6 hours over their estimate to do it as on my car (nov 04 build) they had to run one or more wires from the glovebox to the trunk and that involved some of the interior being removed and replaced but they held to their quoted price. For what its worth there is also a bracket of sorts to hold the Ipod in the glove box. My take is that its definitly a dealer install item unless you want a half assed install.
