I used the fishing line and denatured alcohol. That seemed to work out but I pulled the ribbon cable off of the digitizer so I had to buy another. I’m not happy with the new digitizer. It has one area that only works when you first start the truck and then goes dead. Of course it’s where the channels are!
In hindsight, I'm sure that would've been a better option. The vid just seemed to make it much more flexible than it actually was.

Back in the land of the living again. My new screen from CA came in just about 3 days after order. $ 400.00 and some change on ebay. Perfect replacement. Everything functions as it should and didn't even lose my preset radio stations.

Being that I had this sucker apart a few days ago it literally only took me maybe 25 minutes from start to hitting the power button. Gotta wonder how a dealership charges over a grand for something like this.

Also got my new tires mounted Monday afternoon. Michelin LTX AT3's. Was a little worried they were gonna ride noisy but these things are awesome. Hoping they do their job in the mud and snow at hunting camp.
