    curious about where you sent the probes

    You don’t think engine heat or something will mess with the outside temp?

    It's not like i'm going for the most accurate temps in the world here, its a $15 part. On my 2002 xtra cab with ac, theres a grommet on the passenger side foot near where your toes might be, looks like the bottom of the glove box has a mount in it. You can poke a tiny phillips head through it and feed the probe into the engine bay. I'm sure engine heat will affect the reading but there is ample airflow around the grommet on that side.

    Put the doors and driver fender on, and sealed the cab up so it can sit in the barn while I’m gone at work.9C7E41E9-B7B9-4E65-8C16-240FB06D8399.jpgvery excited for the finished product. Hoping to get it done on my next rotation off
