Most doesn't realize till they have them that those mirrors are one of the best upgrades for these trucks.
Nice work !

Thanks!
I also have a factory amp bypass plug that will be here tomorrow. Figured I could do all the under dash work at the same time.

I'm going to use some four wire trailer wire to make it easy.

Hardest part will be moding to power fold switch to have the "remote" button.

I tried to get the build sheet from GM CS on here, but they told me that my truck is too old, and that I'd have to pay their vendor $50 to get it. :(

My dad and I just got a couple of these mini-clamp meters, and I decided to see how much current the 9011 HIR bulbs were pulling, and it turns out the pair of bulbs are drawing 10.66 amps.

My dads mobile radio puked, so I pulled the one in my truck and installed it in his, then I installed my Yaesu FT-8500 in my truck.
I like it much better.
I can control all the functions of the radio from the mic.
