[QUOTE="Chad-ApolloOptics, post: 1490762, member: 35763"] Thanks Nick! I have the E&G in my 2020. It took about 25 minutes and a beer to install. A hint for installing would be that you do not have to unplug the USB cables on the backside of the center console panel. There is enough slack if you just unplug the three other wires and push it to the side. And yes, a "large" crowbar is not needed. You can use a long flathead screwdriver (which I did) and it works completely fine. You realistically only need to lift it for maybe a second to slide over the split in the metal baseplate. Then, since I run my radio setup out of my console, I trimmed the tray on my 2020 (I had done this on my 17, but I had a relief cut in it so it would sit flush with the passenger sidewall of the console. It didn't look right on this one, so I traced and trimmed out the new console tray. Then I was able to fit my dual radio/intercom bezel in there, and make it work. I use the GJ Motorsports TBL for my antenna mount and coax. I have an external speaker under the driver seat so I can hear with the lid closed. And I have all my intercom wiring plumbed to the seat backs so I can easily plug in our headphones. Radio faces me, intercom faces co-pilot. He can deal with that stuff if we're using headsets. But I'd still rather have the radio face me since I'll always be in the driver seat when wanting to change channels, etc. It's a super slick system, but it leaves you minimal room to store items. I utilize my door panels for a fair amount of stuff, as well as the cubby in front of the shifter. And you'll see in some subsequent photos, I use the hell out of my backseat. Stay tuned! (P.S. The Deagle doesn't fit, but the FNX .45 does!) [ATTACH]145312[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]145313[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]145314[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
