    Nope. It was somewhat of a bitch. Console comes out, airbag comes out, steering wheel and clock spring is removed some some upper & lower dash panels come off.

    Then comes the wiring, connections, soldering and re-assembly.

    First time I did it I had help from three LX buds and we were all learning how to do it. Total time was a bit under 8 hours. I think we got in each other's way too much. But it was fun.

    I participated in a total of 9 installs and by that time my bud Hank & I could do the mod in 4 hours.
