Too graphic for me, is this Saw 4?
Sorry I'm weak hearted

Well, better than having your sinuses hardwired, that's for sure!

Ok here is a picture. But I must explain for the wires hanging out. I had mentioned to the wife well I think she saw me drewling over the Stiletto 100 when we were at the install place, Well the entire world was back ordered,
Anyway later that same day she happens to find one at a bestbuy. Long story short she got it for me

I installed temp. due to the old sirius was 12volt and new unit 5volt. So back I go to get the install completed again.

Wow what a nice surprise, I haven’t been able to see a real one much less buy one. Would you mind giving us your critic of the stiletto after some use? Personally I’m interested in the battery life, reception when not docked, and the overall quality/durability of the unit. I've been waiting for Sirius to release a truly portable unit for car, home and gym use to compete with the sexy units of XM. I'd be more than willing to give up the lightness of my Shuffle for a "do it all."

Ya im very curious on this too. I doubt it will be any good undocked.

Well as for being undocked and sig reception, When I was getting it turned on it was getting sat.recption without the headset/antenna I connected to the car antanna and I have no complaints, as for battery life I'll be honest I don't know,I haven't had an opportunity to use it, I do like the record of sirius or mp3 for play back later. There is so much I don't know about this unit.

Here is a night time shot

really was no need to take out the heater controls, can just as easily work around them, the yaris dash is wide open compared to just about everything else on the road.
