I had mine for 1 day before I got impatient and put it in. When I get anxious, I can't help myself. Same for everything else I've done to my truck. If something is coming in the mail, you best believe that the second it arrives, I'm outside putting it in the truck haha.

well the ohc is put on hold until i find a new harness. I did make my 3rd brake light cargo lamps functional (finally) so now they turn on with the dimmer switch and also when i open the door. I also wired up my mustang dome light. I need to get a bulb for the center but it works great!







how OHC will sit till i get back to it.

Nice of you to update again haha. I drove around with my overhead console mounted but unwired for a day (all the while telling myself that I'd wire it the next weekend) before it started driving me crazy. That was on a Saturday. I woke up on Sunday morning and wired it. I have no patience.

That's the exact opposite of what I would do. I'd install it and never wire it up due to procrastination and fear of touching anything electrical because I will probably mess something up. lol

So, this is what, your third truck? and you've installed stuff on how many other's trucks?
Do you know some of these mods by heart now, or are you still looking them up?

Haha that's how I was on the first one I did. I was mainly scared cutting the headliner.

I've done all my 3 trucks and I drove up to Maine to do one. The kid sold his truck though. His username was Kyle12201 or something. I Looked at the how to for this mainly cuz 04+ has a few things that are different so I kinda had to lol















All I need to wire is the temp sensor.



It works!

Good job! Did you find a black console? I have yet to see one of those around here, and so far I've found grey, tan, and dark tan.
