So did you have the basic 3.0 radio before this one? How much did that upgrade run you if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks

I had the basic RES radio. I actually bought this radio from a member on another forum for around $800. These radios typically cost $2000.

Looking great man! How exactly did you update your radio? I've been trying to get mine updated for a long time. It still has the old 2010 software and Nav Maps.

The guy I bought it from had it updated prior to me purchasing it.

If you are talking about the blue bulbs they are just a chinese brand bulb that is tinted blue. I do not remember the name of them.

I paid someone to do it so I think they just used regular automotive paint with clear coat. Surprisingly the engine cover doesnt get too hot so I dont think there is a need for heat resistant paint.
