I would have a concern being able to reach the two control heads way over on the right side of the vehicle by the driver. A consideration should be given to mounting those two control heads above or below the radio under the dash. It sure would be a safer operation that trying to lean way over to get to those control heads and the mic between them.

In addition to the remote heads mentioned above, get rid of all of the excess cable and wiring in the various boxes (light control and radio box). No need for the loops of extra power cable, extra control cable, etc., also, label both ends of every cable, it will make upgrading and trouble shooting easier. I also presume the cable are unprotected when they leave the boxes? Invest in some split loom to protect everything.

Other than that, it looks good, just needs cleaned up a bit.
