UPDATE: finished the install and things look pretty good. there are some updates that will need to be done to fix a few things, such as turning off the passenger airbag light, getting heated/cooled seats working, getting the heated steering wheel working etc.. But the system is snappy and works well, and as expected the XM is not working, but according to the company, I could just swap in a 2019+ radio and it will come back.
overall the install was pretty straightforward, it didnt come with any instructions and was missing some of the mounting hardware, so I kinda just had to watch others videos on how they did it and throw in misc hardware that I had on hand for some of the small things. the gapping is pretty good, I think I need to do some small tweaks to get things flush and perfect, but other than that, works as expected and works nicely!
the car play is great, connected wirelessly after setup. im going to have to get used to having this big screen now! I was almost set to get one of the other "T-style" screens, but opted to go this route to have a more "stock" appearance.
