Update!
Installed it today.
Took 2 hrs to wire up and cut the dash to install, overall very easy to do. Did not even have to take the IP apart or remove anything other than the access panel under the passenger glove box.
Wired up the speaker to the OEM speaker wire and then just fished wires to the fuse box under the dash on the passenger side and wired it up to power, ground and ACC, She works wonderfully and goes up and down when the car is on and off. You can wire it up to go up and down with the volume knob but need a relay. And the white LED is a nice touch.
This was a quick and easy job. Just had to extend the wires a little so I could easily access the power block.
The speakers sound just as good as they where if not slightly better as the sound is more focused with the design of the unit could be just a placebo effect who knows. Overall very happy.
Now just need to upgrade everything else. Found Focal makes direct plug and play speaker upgrades so going to start their.
The unit looks just as good as the OEM unit and find no difference between them.

Lol. Pretty crazy what they will copy nowadays !
Was cruising the net and fell upon this jewel of copy-write infringement bliss.....
Well for anybody that wants the look and half the effort of retrofitting and possibly crappy sound at a fraction of the cost now you have a choice!
Theirs even cheaper versions as well.
This ones a straight up copy down the the aluminum topper and even the B&O text.
Crazy
