Argon ONE (V2) Pi 4 Script

I have been using the Argon ONE (V2) Case for Raspberry Pi 4 for a long time and I am very happy with it.

To be able to use the case to the full extent, it is recommended to install the script offered by Argon 40.

I have saved a copy here along with the instructions to have a copy in case Argon 40 no longer offers it themselves.

Just to clarify: I am in no way affiliated with Argon 40, I only use their cases as an end user.

You can find them here:
