Cab owners - Mod4cars SmartTop $360
This seems like a great deal. The cheapest I've seen it for was around $450. So $140 off retail.

I cannot tell if this has everything that is needed for the install. Anyone know? This is a solid price though.

I have been about to place an order direct from Mods4Cars and the best discount I could find was 5% off. This looks good.
The seller is listed as an authorized dealer on the Mods4Cars site so I think they are the same as you would get factory direct.
I am going to give it a shot. Thanks for the heads up.

Be sure to do your stretching warmups and have your Advil ready before you go out to install! I've put four of those in since 2014, and the older I get, the harder it is to bend around and get that module plugged in.
It's about like this...

I'm probably going to purchase the SmartTop and have been reading up on install methods and looking at the Youtube video for installing a SmartTop (the video I found shows a 911 which has a different harness connnector).
I found that by placing the top in the service position you can access the top module behind the rear seat from outside the car.
Raise the rear hatch and release the carpet from the back of the car by pulling out from the weatherstripping - thats all that holds it in place.
The module and all the connectors can be reached from behind the car without being inside the car or dismantling the shelf behind the rear seats.
The carpet can be lifted and the oem module can be seen on the backwall behind the rear seats
The connector that needs to be removed for the 992 is the large connector second from the left.

Ordered Fri 2/3. Delivered today 2/6 from NV to MD. Wish the cars came that quick. Can someone confirm this is everything needed? Looks like it.

See my earlier post about accessing the oem module from the back of the car without dismantling the shelf behind the rear seats.

One thing to consider doing; buy a USB extension cable from Amazon/etc -- should be just a few dollars. Then run an extension to the module's USB port and hang it somewhere you can get to it easily should you need to modify settings / firmware in the future. I wish I had done this. I'd like to review / change settings but don't feel like trying to get to the module install area.
