    Not sure what OME is but they looked super close side by side.

    I did replace my brake line and that may have been slightly impairing full droop.

    Damn. Seems like a perfect shock for my setup...I have 10" foxs now and they bottom out but they arent relocated. These relocated could be perfect as I could get them pretty damn straight up and down. Ill have to look into those.

    same as OME actually.

    huh. I kinda dig it. Mostly purple, touch of gold. Like the matte look of it too and not super shiny like you posted before.

    id forgot about the sticker bomb. Looks sinister this way.

    I ran into a problem in wiring my Gentex mirror, specifically the temperature feature.

    When I was at the junkyard I bought an ambient temperature sensor off a Ford Explorer, and a GM sedan (forgot the model). When the sensor isn't connected to the mirror, the display says 'OC'. When I have either temp. sensor connected (Ford brand or GM Brand), it flashes "-40" and "ICE". I'm not sure if the temp. sensors have polarity, but switching the wires doesn't change anything.

    The Gentex mirror came off a Nissan Titan/Pathfinder. Are the temp. sensors inter-compatible within makes, or would I need a Nissan temp. sensor?

    Im guessing its an impedance load thing. I'd try looking into what the temp sensors you have are speced at and what a nissan one is. Might just be a simple resistor to get it right.

    im sure direct light makes it do crazy shit.

    but seriously. I think the sticker bomb thing would ruin it. Looks mean right now. The stickers would look trashy next to the paint i think..

    Yeah that's what I was thinking. Hmm. I might need to buy a couple from some Nissan vehicles.

    Here's the wiring schematic for the '05 Titan/Pathfinder it came off of.
