My replacement(s)

My car was in the delearship due to the Command System going from tracking me in a different area to a totally blank screen. It was there for 22 days awaiting, installing, part after part, unitl finally they decided to order a whole new Command System. Here were my "replacements" while waiting:

Install was done by dealer for both items. Dropped them off with the car when it went in for the command fix. Service said that it took less than 20 minutes for both and there was no charge.
