So where does the box go? You have to leave it in the glove compartment?

Damn brother I must say; this is something I have thought a LOT about; especially the past few years I have had my 14 Encore. I love it; one of the only things i hate about it is just a year or two after the production of the car; they started making car play standard! Bastards.
I really appreciated how well you explain things and explain where things go; where the clip[s are and in which direction to pull or place them.
Thank you very much for this!

Thank you for the feedback!

Installed this myself this morning following the above for guidance only, certainly takes longer than the 8 minutes you see here, but I expected that, all depends on your hands size and your luck in getting that radio to line back up with the cables afterwards. Seems to work great, haven't had much time to toy with it yet, but it does work and google maps functions which is nice. Screen isn't touch because the OEM screen isn't touch and GROM doesnt appear to sell a kit for a touch overlay, they do however sell a 7 inch overlay kit meant for Volvo Mercedes which makes me curious if it would also work for this screen since they are both 7in, GROM said they didnt carry one for my 2014 buick encore, not sure if worth trying the one for Volvo Mercedes.
