its hot out, thanks OHC
So I finished installing my OHC yesterday. I ablsolutely love it! best mod I have done and well worth the little money it costed. Grigg's write up was amazing and mad the install a walk in the park.
Took under 2 hours to install in weather that was 90-100 degrees and very humid. Took several breaks to grab cold ones.
Driving back from my frat house today, I snapped a pic of the temp read out on the OHC while i was parked. 100. In Worcester I got a reading of 104!!!
heres the pics:

I also installed mine when it was in the upper 90's it sucked. I have seen it over 100 twice this year. That was on back to back days and I was going 45mph each time.

I know how that goes and I live in alabama! A few years ago the day after xmas it was 75 and we had a lot of tornado warnings going on. When I woke up the net morning we had 2 inches of snow and it was 30 out. Talk about crazy weather in the south.

heres some infore on the VAR settings, i got it from. http://www.fullsizebronco.com.
direct link to the thread on the forums.

These are the zones used for programing the compass
To acctually calibrate the compass:
Go find an abandoned parking lot and follow the following steps:
Press and hold the "MODE" button until you see "VAR" (takes around 5 seconds)
Release the "MODE" button. Push the "MODE" button until you have selected the zone you are currently in.
Release the "MODE" button and wait until the console is back at normal operation.
Press and hold the "MODE" button until you see "CAL" (takes around 9 seconds)
Release the "MODE" button.
Now the fun part. People will think you are crazy. Drive in a circle at around 3mph. Your console will be changing direction really fast. Continue to do this until the console is back at normal operations

i asked what the VAR setting was almost a year ago and no one answered me, so i found out myself, well, i looked in my ex g/f's mom's owners manual haha.
