Finally got around to installing this little gem today. A few observations:

1. There is some weird tether connecting the forward portion of my center console to the rear of the floor just forward of the rear bulkhead. For the life of me I couldn't get the damn thing to come undone - mostly 'cause I couldn't see what I was doing as I reached up and into the underside of the console. This also meant I had to remove the switch for the top and mirrors blind since I couldn't pull the console fully out of the way - the top switch was easy, the mirror switch not so much. Of course I then had to plug them back in blind - top switch was easy, the mirror switch not so much. Again.

2. That dang e-brake cover did NOT want to come off. I had visions of it suddenly letting go and me doing some serious damage to something when suddenly there was no resistance against my extreme pulling. In the end, though, it worked loose little by little. For me this was the hardest part of the install.

3. The need to splice into the pink wire w/white & red repeater that's on the mirror switch threw me for a second. I don't know why, but I kept missing the part about it being on the mirror switch - guess I figured I was installing something for the top so why look at the mirror. Too excited to get this installed, perhaps?? No matter, my bad as it is clearly written in the instructions. Me = moron. Sometimes.

4. THIS THING IS FREAKIN' SWEET!!!!!

5. Repeat #3 above.

6. Thank you, Rudy, for this terrific little addition to my car!
