Nope.. but the file is already created so it’s what several of us are running. Just plug it into your computer and download after someone sends it to you.

This is what I use per @Ragnar406 suggestion... I’m pleased. I haven’t had any issues and it’s “waterproof” so you may want to check it out. Just FYI.

FYI If your radio display is in Chinese let me know. I also have the updated file to remedy that also.

i finally ditched my mag mount antenna, I had mine mount in back up high and got sick of it getting beat up by branches. I have the same antenna on my truck (uhf mounted) so I know they work good so I bought a nmo mount of the same antenna (https://www.amazon.com/NR770HBNMO-Mobile-antenna-70cm-40in/dp/B00AR09XBK/?tag=sxsweb24-20) to put on the pioneer. I already had made the mount for the led cube so I just made a tab to put the nmo mount on.
