2017 242X Stereo upgrade

I have mine behind the helm so I didn't have to drill any holes in the dash and all. I don't really mess with it much as it's preset so it's out of the way for me.

Sorry guys, I’ve had very limited internet access for the last two weeks. Many thanks for all the comments.

@GTBRMC, I may have missed this but where did you get the billett mount? Is it made by WS?
 
Yes, it is a Wetsounds part. Can be seen here: https://www.wetsounds.com/shop/marine-radio-electronics

I went with black. Bought it from @Earmark Marine when I bought the WS420BT and some JL Audio gear. Like all things Wetsounds, it was not cheap. But it was bulletproof.
That is AWESOME. I did not know those exist.
Definitely getting one.
After making contact between a knee and the sharp bottom of the face plate - I'll say - it looks good to me!

Also - love the harness. Great install. I'll be redoing mine now, I already got KnuKonceptz RCA on @Mainah recommendation - those are ridiculous (look at the size of the shielding - compared to a pencil!!!), no way those can fit through the opening I'm using now (w/BestBuy RCAs):

This will (hopefully) be the last battle of my static noise war! The hum is already gone - all grounds lead to one under the helm KnuKonzepts (4g?) big boy wire.
