    Has Anyone Installed One Of The Generic Chinese Android Head Units?

    If you use any of the Mozilla family of browsers, there are several extensions available to view Photobucket links. IDK if there's anything for Mac/IE/Edge/Opera. FYI-It still works great.

    I Made A Lighted Hood Emblem-Lots Of Pics

    Hey, all-it's been a while. If you use any of the Mozilla family of browsers, there are several extensions available to view Photobucket links. IDK if there's anything for Mac/IE/Edge/Opera.

    passenger airbag removal

    Understood; you mentioned the mailer. I meant in that you can compare afterwards if all affected issues were fixed at the time.

    Turn signal flasher location on 2008 Ram

    Should be under hood with the fuses. Under the lid is a diagram with relay and fuse circuits.

    passenger airbag removal

    You can go to FCA website and find any ongoing recalls on your vehicle. I don't remember if you have to create an account or can just check by VIN. Speaking of that, I went in for the recall. They checked and said "Yes, we have the bags". Fine; my truck was in there for ~ four hours. The...

    passenger airbag removal

    I can tell you what is involved in removing a passenger bag in an '05. The process should be pretty close, considering the panels were revised in '06. Basically, it's right above the glove compartment and for the year concerned, remove the glove compartment door and maybe another fascia panel...

    did I make a mistake??

    My truck (2500 4X4 Hemi) is solidly ~13 MPG highway empty. 9 MPG is what I'd see towing.

    O2 sensor locations

    No pictures needed-they're easy to find. The oxygen sensors are on the exhaust system. You'll see a wire harness going into the exhaust pipe. IDK about early 3G trucks, but I *kinda* think there is only three sensors. Mid-later 3Gs for sure have four; upstream and downstream of the catalytic...

    Bedliner diy roll on

    I used Herculiner when I got my first Ram (2G). It looks good and is easy to apply, but it doesn't hold up well. I had my 3G done professionally and it's held up well. It is now at the point where it's thinning and flaking. I had a plastic bedliner in the Ford I had prior to the 2G Ram...

    Radio head change

    Your truck has PCI bus. CANBUS was introduced in Ram pickups in '06; some vehicles (like Dakotas) got it a little earlier. I doubt there is even any interfaces that would allow for full function. And if there were, I'd think they would be expensive. I think you'd be better off selling it and...

    Center differential vs Transfer case and which fluid to use

    I'm pretty sure you have a Getrag 238 transmission, since you say you've a manual. http://www.carquestprofessionals.com/catalogs/chemicals/V-8070 Manual Transmission Fluid Application Guide 6.6.13.pdf shows Valvoline products by year and transmission. Long story short, if your truck is 2WD...

    Swapping Steering Wheels

    Sorry; I didn't see this in a timely manner. IDK if there's much (if any) difference between steering wheel shaft splines/diameters on generational-model trucks (in this case, '02-'08), but I've read there is a difference with clock springs within the generational years. I think you'd need to...

    Uconnect System Upgrade

    Online or offline navigation. With most of these Android HUs, they will likely have a pirated version of iGO. Getting updates is pretty dicey, as some (most? all?) of these outfits say they will offer map updates. Good luck on that. :crazy: I have Sygic through Google Play. I got a world...

    Uconnect System Upgrade

    I make no recommendation of one over the other. It's just that you linked to an Android HU. I wanted to give you an idea of what was involved. Now that the learning curve is long past for me, I'd get another, without question. However, they're not for everybody. What you want is easily achieved...
