[QUOTE="Oldfart, post: 1485469, member: 25546"] Yes, mandatory or you forfeit your man card. The 2 things I ran into is that if you have an 802A, finding the tiny little very flat and hard to see tabs on either side of the USB port plugs was hard until you figure out where they are. There is a very small flat tab on either side of the USB plug I needed to put a small flat blade screwdriver under each one, then it popped right out. The other thing is poor directions and VERY poor photography on the install sheet. The thing that wasted a lot of time due to the poor directions is that once you remove the 2 10mm bolts from the rear/side of the console they tell you to get a "large" pry bar to pry up the right rear of the console so you can slide in the steel mounting plate. What they neglect to mention, or show in their ****** photo, is you are prying up on the [B][U]plastic part only [/U][/B]of the console. There is a sort of honeycomb/ribbed part underneath you can safely pry on with a 12" or so wonder bar. NOT on the black metal bar that runs all the way across and is what I was prying on to start. Between telling me to use a LARGE pry bar and the poor photo I wasted a lot of time trying to carefully raise the black metal bar. I would not consider a foot long wonder bar, which very easily has more than enough power, to be a LARGE pry bar. I have 2 footers and 3 footers, those are large pry bars! That gloss black metal brace IS NOT MOVING and a simple 10" Wonder Bar is easily enough to carefully lift on the bottom of the console box to slip the plate underneath. Other than that it's a straight forward install. [ATTACH=full]144483[/ATTACH] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
