    Ohhhh shit my lift started started getting delivered just waiting on the ADS coilovers(about 4 weeks) getting the FN 5 stars 16x8 also. For tires I'm leaning towards Atturo Trail Blade X/T (not MT) 285 75. I've seen good reviews anyone running them have anything shity to say about them?

    Oh they have tons. I went there once.

    But they change an arm and a leg for any kind of parts. They wanted $600 for a high mileage A340F plus a $100 core. I drove to Reno to another full service yard and I only paid $250 and a $25 core charge.

    I actually had a lot of trouble pulling the bed at the junkyard. Frame was rusted to hell so it was easier to just take the gas tank straps off.

    My frame is perfectly fine so I may be just taking the bed off. Where would the burnt wires be?

    They both are wrong, you need bronze f-5's or gold ray 10's as we have seen how sexy they look on red.

    I love it though, no one else in my office “can get to work” so I’m the only one here and I just emailed them saying “I’ll work from home today” :rofl:

    How much was that if you don’t mind me asking?

    Just FYI, it was 124° colder than that here today according to Snatch Chat

    I have the same one. It's a very rare variation of the Gentex 313 from a 2012 Nissan Titan. I had to special order the temperature probe from Nissan brand new. Only very rare models had HomeLink, Temperature, and Compass at the same time. It took me months to find it in that configuration.

    If you don't care about HomeLink, then you can buy the Temp/Compass mirrors with harness for under $100

    Here's my Gentex 313. Came out of a 2012 Nissan Titan/Armada. You will never find one in this configuration with HomeLink, Temperature, and the Compass.

    About six different wires: two for pos/neg, two for the temperature probe, one for the transmission reverse signal (to undim the mirror), and one for the rheostat/dashlights.

    I bought about six different temperature probes from six different GM and Ford cars (which almost exclusively have Gentex mirrors) but none of them worked. Something about the capacitance or the resistance of the sensor or something.
