For the OHC mod; when installing the auto dim mirror, do you have to make the head lights auto as well? I want to do it but I like being in controll of my head lights for when I'm creeping lol jk

No you don't have too. You can turn the headlights off with the auto-headlight mod. Just when you have switch set to on it automatically turns them on at night and turns them off when you turn the truck off.

Yes just don't hook that part up at all. The auto-dim part is just 2-3 wires that hook to the OHC wiring.

Does anyone have the wiring diagram for an OHC with Auto Dim mirror?
I have the entire OHC wiring harness down to the A pillar as well as the wiring for the mirror (the one with just a slide at the bottom)

I believe I have a diagram without the mirror, but not one for an OHC with the mirror.

I'd like to try out the mirror, but I don't want to use the auto headlight function.
