He used just some straps to hold it in place since there is no mounting bracket. Then you just wire it like your normal radio I would assume, plus adding the navigation stuff etc.

in all honesty you would be better off with aftermarket. The RB1 is better than the RB4 and overall is nice, but you can get soo much more with aftermarket.

Yes aftermarket is the way to go, and I think they are easier to update
