I did get the O2, coolant temp, and oil pressure sensors replaced. No more red lights on the dash and it runs like a champ.

I have the new condenser for the AC installed. Just need to charge it up and find out what is preventing the compressor from coming on.. I also installed the B&M Oil Cooler http://www.summitracing.com/parts/bmm-70264 and the Perma-Cool remote http://www.summitracing.com/parts/prm-10678 filter for the tranny.
Mirrors should bolt up fine and connections should be the same. I put power heated 99+ regular mirrors on mine to replace manual tow mirrors (i dont tow so no need for them), Used the switch from a 97 to control them. Donno if it would be different in 95 though..

Dodge never had a compass/temperature gauge in the rear view mirror, it was in where compartment that you have right there.
I can post a picture of mine if necessary. But that's what I was speaking of.
Thanks, I'd appreciate a picture if you get the chance.

Thanks, It's worth figuring out. Just glad they will fit.

If they won't for some reason fit, you could just drill new mounting holes as well. One of my friends had to do that to attach dodge tow mirrors to his old chevy. And yes he did tow a ghost trailer with them

Here you go.
Tad bit blurry, but it will work.


In 95-98 it only has two functions: Compass and Outside temperature. In 99 they changed it and it was multifunction.

I just have the standard sunglasses hole...lol. I can't even locate any wiring back there and do not feel it necessary to start ripping out the headliner to add a compass and temp.

As an update. The guy who rebuilt the transmission still could not fix the shifting issue under a warranty claim. He did replace a busted bearing in the OD. I took it to a more competent shop and there transmission guy narrowed it down to the Governor solenoid. They wouldn't be able to get to it until after the 1st so I just picked up the truck. I can drop the pan and replace the solenoid.
