You will have no problems; the units simply slide in and out of the dashboard once the appropriate tool has been inserted into the little holes in the front of the unit, and the electrical connection is made by one multi-pin plug. -- Regards Leroy Curtis Please replace "nospam" with "baram" in my address if you wish to reply by Email
