Hey guys this video is a little all over the place because I fried this decoder a couple of time and the great people at Sound Traxx warranty it for me both times, so it been on the bench for about 2month, but it installed now and running great. Let me tell Sound Traxx customer service is incredible I was having an issue after I did the install and their Tech spent almost 45 minutes helping me track down and fix the problem so between the time, they spent helping me both times I fried the decoder and them getting it running and sounding right they spent about a 1hr 45 min helping me. 

THAT MY FRIENDS IS CUSTOMER SERVICE!
