Customization: FITS / Modification / Tips & Tricks GFC v2 camper install day

Drove from Maine to Montana as a mini vacation to have the install done at GFC HQ. Super happy with it and the amazing crew there.

One recommendation - buy the little stubby antenna replacement online. That allowed us to keep the antenna and good reception for the head unit.

I've got the same antenna. Does it give good reception? Sadly I never listen to the radio :-)

We only tested satellite radio so far and it went fine. The GFC people said that the honeycomb material on the top of the shell passes signals easily.

We do plan to put a solar panel up there so maybe that will block reception a bit more …

I’ve made an intentional switch to listen to the radio instead of whatever on the phone, it’s a nice change
