Disconnect the din plug to the arm and remove for an easy dusting, and this would only have to be done maybe 3 times a year. I like my Scout too much the way it is than to put a plastic box over it. I have been that route with a TNT but that is a gloss black and shows everything. I don't think things will be that bad with the scout and I am going to try mine without for a while before spending $$$.
