    Good morning CT. Happy Wednesday.

    I pulled the air compressor wiring out of my truck last night after work. :goingcrazy:

    With the Auxbeam I'm installing I needed to make a couple different connections and it's going to be easier to pull the wiring and start over. I ordered new marine grade wire and a couple fuse holders.
    I also pulled the wiring going to my aftermarket outside temp sensor. I need to run the temp sensor and front camera wiring to basically the same spot so bigger tubing is needed, which I already have.

    This Saturday through I need to fix the rear defrost on my BIL's Heep. Broken wires going to the hatch.

    I live in the Greenwich/Stamford area. Shelton could work too, as my daughter lives in Orange. Thanks!

    Hey guys, I want to get a tune for my 2018. Any recommendations for southeastern CT or general area? I looked into it a while ago, but I can't find the thread.

    Whats everyone have for their tune? Any input is appreciated. Here are my two tacos

    I went Overland Tailor Tune...its life changing. I also jumped the ECT switch so the default is always on and its a joy to drive now. Especially since I have the cap, a loaded bed, and all sorts of other heavy shit.

    https://masteryotallc.com/book-a-tune

    This dude is the man, super knowledgeable and a good guy. Met me at my job late on a Sunday night to do the tune. Highly recommend. (I have ZERO affiliation, I just appreciate when ppl are good at what they do)

    They're good.
    When I worked out of Shelton I had good luck at Stellars as well.
