U might as well just put a cubby hole up there. The fancy gauge and mpg thing was useless and never accurate imo

Got my projector headlights installed and running good! Took about 45 minutes to level and aim them, and 2-3 hours of troubleshooting to get it running smoothly. Even came with a burnt bulb after the first hour of use... But looking good now!

Hey man, got them from eBay. One of the halogen bulbs burned out within an hour and a weather stripping piece was pretty dirty - I had to use my own 3M tape to secure it. Besides that, the lights shine bright, look great and are a huge upgrade to my dirty, ugly, crusty old stock lights.

Yea it didn't hurt me a whole lot when i chunked the thing in my bed. Only thing i liked was the temp gauge. Mpg i always hand calculate. My seat belt is also locked up on the driver and passenger side. I'm thinking it's that module cause for both of them to lock up is something more than just a seat failure.

Sadly I sold my 01 yesterday. Think the headgasket started going, overflow bottle filled up with oil pretty quickly. Took it to the dodge dealer and walked out a few hours later with a Kia Soul 2.0 6 speed manual. I miss my truck, but I'm enjoying 30 mpg and banging gears again.

Pulled a spark plug and found little amounts of oil on the plug. I pulled plug 2 on the driver's side. It wasn't a lot but just enough to not be bone dry. So that explains why i lose oil psi

I hope you can sleep at night knowing that your truck will be seeing the junkyard in the very near future.
