Default $7 Mod!

Nothing to exciting, saw another member do this awhile back. Forgot who but thanks! Ran the wire down and drilled a hole in the cupholder for now. Later going to run it up under the center seat unless somebody wants to trade me for a center console.

Also took my camper shell off. Another part is ordered and will take pictures when I put it on!

yep, just search ebay for them. I got one with the MP3 input for $35 ($25 + 10 to ship) and then sold my 6-disk cd changer that was originally in it for $60...lol

Yeah...That would have been me. Your welcome

Here's the original thread.

Also, you might wanna use two cables. I had just a single like your running, but after repeated pluging and unpluging the wire went bad, so I replaced it with a 2 wire setup so IF/WHEN I destroyed the plug in again I didn't have to rip the dassh apart and run the whole thing all oveer again...
