Few months ago I decided to make a change in my cab and replaced the OEM shift **** for this red ball



After getting tired of that I decided to go with this new one:



And since I was already buying random things at Autozone I went for this lighter upgrade:

Looks awesome. How did u get the factory **** off? I'd like to put something else on

 

Taking out the factory **** was a Royal Pain, I´ve heard from many fellas here that with the time (years) it just came off. But in my case (2010 truck) I had to use a hacksaw and destroy it completely after hours and hours of trying to pulling it out. (It has not thread or bolts, just pressure)

 

Nice!

What's the switch by the shifter for? Auxiliary lamps?

 

Is that the stock stereo?

 

Where he is from, yeah.

The lighter thing is funny.

 

Haha, I like the lighter.

 

i may have to try and remove my **** one day, if i can find a replacement that i like

 

When I installed the viper alarm, which came with electric locks... I decided to install a bypass with that switch to control de locks from the cab instead of only have them locked when I arm the alarm.

 

yep. Stock stereo included on 2010 and late LATAM Rangers...

 

So, your doors don't lock when you start the truck and the doors are closed?

 

Nop, actually all the functionality of the alarm remains the same, I only added an electric control

Below the current opeation of the alarm:

- When I turn on the truck, the doors get locked
- If I turn on the truck and one door is open, then the locks remains open
- When I turn off the truck, the doors locks open
- And of course I have the regular Alarm operation (Alarm Armed - Doors Locked, Alarm Disarmed - Doors Unlocked)

 

The lighter is funny!

 

Got it wrong, then. Works just like my Extreme alarm. Truck came with it, so I hadn't bothered changing it. =/
