This is awesome. Do you (or does anyone) have a write up for this? I’ve seen the glove box install instructions, and this looks easier, but I’d love to know which panels/pieces I’d have to take off to access what I need.Alright, I'll have you know that I had to set down my margarita just to take these. It was touch and go for a second there.

Thank you!I don't have a fancy write-up, unfortunately, but here's the tl;dr:
1. remove the short panel underneath the heater controls (comes off super easy with a trim tool)
2. use a trim tool to pry open the panel underneath the steering column (7-8 clips in total). Work it slow and it pops right off and swings downward.
3. remove the screws on the side of the temp control panel
4. working from the top center and outward, use a trim tool to remove the temp control panel. Try to loosen the top portion first. If you unclip the side portions first, the upper housing will bind against the dash under the screen and it gets super effin' hard to remove.
5. install however you need to, it's tight, but there's still plenty of room to work and thread things through
Any plans on making it work with the MXT575? It's much bigger. I'm in Eastern NC...Went live this afternoon. I am using mine for the Midland GMRS radio. Install video will be done when the antenna mount is ready.

Waiting to hear back from a customer. The 575 will fit with the bracket above the glove box. It may scrub the top if the glove box. Should know within the next couple days.Any plans on making it work with the MXT575? It's much bigger. I'm in Eastern NC...

That's cool.... WTF is it? LolAfter watching everyone get creative with mounting the Kicker Key 200.4 up above the glovebox, it seemed like a need to be filled. Thanks to my friends at @Mountains2Metal , it is becoming a reality. Thanks for letting me be the Guinea pig guys, install video coming soon.
It’s a long story manThat's cool.... WTF is it? Lol
