Installation was not difficult. Instructions were good.
It is probably not the neatest/flashest console (and it certainly was not the most expensive) - its just plastic moulding- but suits me fine. Its my main work vehicle and functional is the key priority - not appearance.
Provides a place for lots of stuff. Also a good place for a lot of the electrical stuff - have the power supply for the phone kit, aerial cables for UHF and phone, engine alarm, switch to join the two batteries together for winching, voltage meters for the two batteries, fuel gauge for the 2nd tank etc all fitting inside it - and then no need to drill holes in the main dash for all of this stuff. The way that the console mounts onto the inside top of the windscreen and adjoins the pillars at the side makes it very easy to run all of the cable for this gear - and keep it al out of the way and out of sight.
Put a mini UHF radio under it (and in the centre) to keep the speaker pointing at me. This fits and works fine.
Overall I am very happy with it.
