Yeah, the guy listed it on ebay starting at $100 with like $12 shipping so it was actually $112 but nobody else put a bid in on it. He said he bought it new from the dealer put it in his Wrangler and it didn't work at all, no lights, no power, etc. I looked it up and found out his Wrangler was high speed CAN-bus. The MyGigs are made for the low speed or high speed bus but you have to have the right one. If you try to put a low speed MyGig in a high speed vehicle it will be completely non-functional which is what I figured he did. For $100 I decided to take the risk and give it a shot, luckily I was right.

Thanks john, I appreciate it.

Eric I was kind of surprised too. Once I knew they were fixing it my biggest worry was that the frame was straight and right after that I was worried they'd never be able to fix it like it was. I've been extremely happy with them though, the guy who runs the shop is a really good guy. He fought with the insurance adjuster to use all OEM Mopar body panels and parts instead of aftermarket or junkyard and when I noticed a few small things after getting the truck back he had me bring it right back in and made sure it all got fixed right off. Caron's Body Shop in Lewiston, ME are the ones that fixed it, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anybody.
