I recently bought a NOS Artex 406 ELT that was still with a good battery. I want to swap out my 121.5 ELT becasue some day Id like to fly into Mexico. Is it as simple as unplugging my old one and plugging in my new one? Do the coax and antenna match up? Do I need an avionics shop to do it or...

Yes it is. In addition to the above, I have recently added an autopilot

Do I have to remove the ELT completely or can I just unplug the antenna?
