West/Central Texas here… Near Abilene. Originally from Long Island, NY.
Anyone in Texas looking for an installer, I suggest getting in touch with Pineapple at Shaman Modifications in Austin. Incredibly smart, well-spoken guy, has chips himself, and tremendous experience. They’re shut down for quarantine, but I’ll be finding him again as soon as the Apex is out.
(Sorry, if this isn’t the place. Being in the middle of nowhere, it was worth the 8 hr round trip drive and I haven’t plugged him before. Hopefully it helps someone.)
