Upgrading to premium pioneer stereo

I just bought a new Pioneer premium stereo off Ebay. I currently have the base pioneer. My question is will the premium stereo plug right in where the old one was as is? Or do i need supplimental wires or anything? Are all the nessacary wires there already? Thank you!

Everything behind the dash is the same: it's a direct plug-and-play.

Hopefully you also bought the Premium radio's instruction manual. The Premium unit has many features not found on the base Pioneer.

Like you, I bought my Premium on eBay. With included instruction booklet and iPod cable, it has been the best $120 purchase in a long time.

Because I was afraid of breaking the dash surround, I paid my nearest Scion dealer to do the installation. - It took them all of 10 minutes to change the radio, but cost me $50 labor.
