Ok guys, Oddly enough I went to the junkyard today and bought the overhead console that has the display for $10, and I also got the temp sensor for under the hood. I got on here to post up a new thread and it was on the first page lol

Question 1. Do I have to get the dimming rear view mirrior and the lit visors? They wanted $20 for rear view and $10 each for visors at the junkyard.

Question 2. I tried to find the plug where the under hood light is, and its not there. Are you guys sure they all had the same harness? I can post a pic if yall would like

I am not really worried about MPG, I just really want Compass and temp to work.

Thanks!
Ryan

no you do not need to get the auto dimming rear view mirror. but man it is so cool
As for the lit visors i did not get them do not need them.

You are saying you have no overhead console? if your head liner is not cut out for a overhead console i would say you would need to thinks this over. You would need the dead liner that will allow for the overhead console right.

Dude, could you proofread your posts before hitting Submit? Half the time I have no idea what you're trying to say.

Ok, the junkyard wanted $20 for the auto dimming mirrior. Is that a good deal? What makes it so cool other than it dims? lol

no no I have an overhead console, it doesnt have the computer built in. I have already installed the new console with the gauge.

My problem is, I got the temp sensor, but I cannot find where you just plug it in under the hood!? Would it help if I posted a picture? Mine is a 2001 Dodge 5.2
