Nice install. I was told by a dealer that permanent mount antenna holes don't deduct from the trade-in value of a vehicle, they are going to give you the least amount anyway and if you sell it privately, the buyer may want the antenna with it, never know.

Looks like a snow plow controller, my guess, Western Plow.

I just installed my radio back in my 2020 Silverado. Can’t see your pictures. I installed my Connex 3300 HP with my Texas star 250 pushing my Dave made 12 pill. Everything is 20 years or older and still kicking **Censored** and taking names. Enjoying the radio again.
