I purchased the AAC scanner. The cutting of the mail slot really isnt a big deal, because it is on the side and if you do it right you will never see the cut, even if you decide to take the scanner out and go back to the factory plastic piece you still cant see the cut.
However, I ran into a problem with my AAC scanner just 3 weeks after installing it. I have the AAC red halo lights and red led's (also from AAC) in the radiator opening, wheel wells, terminator hood vents and inside where your feet go.
When I first put in the scanner it matched all the other red lights and looked really good, but 3 weeks in, the red light in the scanner started turning pink. And has made my all black camaro with Red Halos and other lights look very feminine. Not exactly the look I was going for.
I mentioned this to the AAC guys and below is the response from them.

Jonathen,
I have only been using the scanner for about a month now, and already the red l.e.d.'s have faded and no longer look red. It is a much lighter color then the red halos I also purchased from you.
Have you had other complaints about this? I do not see any difference in any of the other colors, but I almost always have it on red. It seems that some of the other color LED's are being activated slightly when the red is on, which caused the color to look pink.

David,
I have not heard of this issue before but unfortunately if it is still in working condition the manufacturer will not warranty it out unless LEDs are out in it or the remote box is not functioning.
I will keep my eye out for this issue but I have not heard of this happening before.
I apologize for any inconvenience,

Needless to say, I was disappointed in their response, especially since I have purchased so many items from them, and not had any problems.
Thats my two cents on the AAC scanner.
