After using my multi tool to remove some of the plastic in the dash it fits like stock. What year is your X, eskirvin?

My wife has taken over the X while her Audi is in the shop (anyone want to buy an Audi? ) so I keep missing the opportunity to take pictures. I should be able to do it today.

I did download the Google maps and about an hour after I did, it wanted to update the area so it wouldn't load. Frustrating. I may order the 4G dongle just for maps.

Another slight annoyance is that the first screen is supposed to be your home screen that you can personalize. I can't do that with mine. It's just the factory loaded apps and I cannot change them. I have to swipe to the next screen for my apps.

When ordering, I forgot to get the antenna. I was thinking about adding DAB+. Does anyone know if you need to get the other 6m cable in addition to the DAB+ for radio reception?
