I had thought that a Garmin 5XX series would have been a natural install on the late model 240da but I've yet to find any images of it. So, Jim (from BOE) gave me a great price on a 545s earlier this year and here's what it looks like in the dash. It's a pretty simple install... the internal antenna works pretty well too. I used the Garmin bracket and didn't even cut the screws... at this position the upper, port side mounting screw is at it's stock length and the wing nut just barely touched the inner wall when threaded on (it's an acute angle so the deeper you go, the more room you loose).
And yeah, that's an Icom 304 below it that I put in too. It works fine with the Garmin for position out, but it doesn't do position in to the Garmin, get a 422 for that.
