Trivia Time!
There was a rush by many to obtain the ZBT-2 during Thanksgiving week. I ordered 2 of them. The order was quickly processed and received. I had a small issue with the delivery, which when brought to Ameridroid's attention (Brandon) was quickly rectified. Brandon's concern and timely responsiveness was most appreciated.
Installed very easy and works great
