Quality on the scosche kit....opinions anyone?

so im currently in the market to buy a dash kit and the harnesses in order to install my double din navi system, and i was wondering what everyone thought of the52 scosche kit.

originally i was going to do the oem dash piece with the metra harness, but it is still kinda pricey.

i found the scosche kit, with harnesses available via ebay from the seller "volaudio" and it would come to $53 including shipping.

BUt, i did hear that some wires were reversed in the kit, but is fixed easily.....anyone know how to do that or which one to switch?

also, im not too too picky about the looks, as long as its somewhat close.

any other opinions would be valued greatly....tia

aznives, that OEM antenna harness is new to me...what is that?
I thought that piece would come with the Pioneer unit? No?

Thanks.

no the honda antenna that connects into the stock head unit isn't the same connector that goes into aftermarket headunits. The guy on this forum that wrote the "aftermarket deck install in 2006 EX" do it yourself guide has the part# listed in his forum, it was about $12, about the same price as a metra or scosche one cost, so i decided to get the honda one just to keep it easy.
