Just got install done on my 4runner with the new radio. Am quite happy with it.

I dont see a lot of good toyota install pics online so I thought I would share. I will try to post some pics.

I want to thank my buddy Seth, Jeff at Sandy's communications for the gear and the folks at MHQ of New Mexico for the install.

Hi Bill,

thanks! I am really happy with it.

I had no idea anyone besides the feds had anything P25 in NM. I will put that repeater the radio and hit y'all up next time I head north. I goto Taos a lot during ski season, and would love to play around with P25 some more.
