Wow, #174, it sure is on the old side, hi.  I have a fairly early one #2995 
from 2009.
I already had F/W 5.66 so no need to upgrade for me.  The instruction manual 
advises to upgrade the firmware before installation.The installation is really 
very easy although I have had mine apart several times for other upgrades over 
the years and am comfyinside the radio.
I had already done the mod for the KXV3B so was familiar with that area of 
disassembly but I think this KIO3B install was even easier.
Good luck with the install.  Should only take a couple hours if you've done the 
KXV3B and are familiar but if its your first adventurein modifying the K3 just 
take your time and don't force anything.

 Bill, I did the same but not fitted yet - would be interested to know your 
thoughts on fitting. i.e. did you do a F/W upgrade first etc (mines a bit old).

 I just bought that KIO3B card a few weeks ago.  Nice to just have the USB 
cable do the work of the serial connection and have the audioon its own codec.  
Still available from the factory as far as I know.

 Apparently this card is no longer available. Does anyone know what the
price was?
