Not exactly "plug and play" because you have to take off several panels inside (namely the driver's side and the entire back of the cargo area). If you get the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) digital rearview mirror, it comes with an extensive instruction booklet. I was shocked by how big it was at first, but then I remembered that it was thick because it had instructions in various languages. Only thirty-one pages are relevant, in my opinion. You can simply "plug and play" the digital rearview mirror into your OEM auto-dimming mirror. Hardware is included in the OEM digital rearview kit; if not, you will have to conduct some wire tapping. It was a breeze to connect the new digital rearview mirror to my PP as it already had the auto-dimming mirror. I hope this clarifies things for you. If you're interested in giving it a go, you can download the installation manual in.pdf format. The most challenging aspect of the installation, in my opinion, was threading the coax through the rubber tube that links the back hatch to the roof. Because there is no other point in the installation where the coax must be protected from the environment, this step is crucial. It's hard to put into words, but you'll understand it when you experience it. Just reply to this post and I'll try my best to share what worked for me if you get "stuck" on this step when installing. Hope everything works out.
