Re: 08' chevy Frailblazer install.. easier than previous years
Just finished an install in my work 06 Trailblazer using the Havis console. Excellent instructions and uneventful install. I now have 13" of space to accomodate a Spectra Astro W5 head, 295 siren, PCDS9 control head and two M1225s. The only drawback is the need to wreck the factory console (by cutting it in half). Finshed install is awesome - also, I moved the computer mount to the side of the console which allows it the float in the center and facilitate passengers again! The standard Havis computer mount places the pole about 6" right of the OEM console effectively eliminating space for frontseat passengers. Hope this info is helpful.
