I also have been very surprised at how easy it has been to install stuff in this truck. This method has proved to work out very well. I decided early on for this build that I would try as much as possible to build things in plug and play modules so I would spend less time installing in the truck. Well this last Thanksgiving holiday, I finally had some time to work on the installation and was able to complete Phase 2 of my audio build.
