Today I installed the PS Override in my 13 LX. My wife helped me (I am 69 years old and she is 59). If we can do this install, than you can too. The instructions and pictures were excellent. Thanks Mark at Prestigious Society, I have tested all features and they work!

Just read all pages of the instructions, before you start. The trim pieces just pull off or out. I did not disconnect the battery, but followed the steps in order and then reversed the order to put it back together. It took me about 3 hours, but it is hot here in Dallas and I took several breaks.

looking at your sig, if you somewhat work on your cars, this should be no problem to you at all. if i were to do the install by myself it's probably going to be around a hour. granted i have done more of this, but the lx is pretty straight forward

sid, awesome that you are enjoying it

behind the nav screen unit it's a very big empty space, you should have no problem finding an empty space to mount it. the kit comes with double sided tape and it's very strong. cables should all be long enough

On my 11 I had it in the ash tray
On my 09 I placed it on the side of the a/c vent above the start button.

I finally took time and got my Prestigious Society Nav and Video enhancement system installed, the instruction is great, the system work great, plug and play no cut wire, now I can enter destination and watch video in motion the most hard parts is not to scratches anything, I was very careful but still made two nicks on the silver trim, to me this LX trim much easier to take off compare to my IS ,but I made it

if anything, the upper air vents on the IS is just a total pita to work on

the lx is relatively straight forward and when a car is well built, things come off easy

congrats!
