I'm not sure exactly how the heating and A/C system works, but I thought that when the temperature setting did not call for heat, or when the A/C is in use, the coolant through the heater core was somehow shut off.

Please enlighten me as to how the heating system works.

Under $100? How about free. I ordered bed lights from Wish and after 4 months of them giving me 5 different mailing due dates I complained and asked to just cancel my order and refund me. They said couldn’t stop the order as it was already shipped yet it still hadn’t left China but they would refund me and if I ever did get the order, I could just keep it. well after another 3 weeks they finally showed up.CA2FEE47-B20A-466A-B81D-21D2714B3542.jpeg
These new bed lights are the EXACT SAME as I’ve seen in a YouTube video from BOOSTEDMOTORSPORTS and others that showed a Mopar trademark on their instructions. Anyway they were originally $18 but wound up being free.

Im no expert would have to look at a manual but i think some where behind the dash is a heater core in a box with 2 electric trap doors ... once you call for heat doors open and the fan moves air thru it.. i didnt think this mod would do well in modern cars and trucks but it did.. maybe because over time these door leak hot air??? My truck is 2 years old..

We got that it is decoration. No one with 1 brain cell would think otherwise.

You are going to put drinks and dirt on the American Flag ... get it.

Do you approve of the image below? I'm sure the person who made it would say it is just decoration.

It's not a flag it's an image of a flag...this image of the flag gets dirty sometimes too.

In fact, 97% of Americans agree placing beverages on images of the flag keeps your hot beverages hotter and your cold beverages colder (regardless of what the flag manual states)...

Wrong:

https://www.military.com/flag-day/flag-ettiquette-dos-and-donts.html
Quick list of Flag Etiquette Don’ts:

  • Don’t dip the U.S. Flag for any person, flag, or vessel.
  • Don’t let the flag touch the ground.
  • Don’t fly flag upside down unless there is an emergency.
  • Don’t carry the flag flat, or carry things in it.
  • Don’t use the flag as clothing.
  • Don’t store the flag where it can get dirty.
  • Don’t use it as a cover.
  • Don’t fasten it or tie it back. Always allow it to fall free.
  • Don’t draw on, or otherwise mark the flag.
  • Don’t use the flag for decoration. Use bunting with the blue on top, then white, then red.

Rostra 250-1870 seat heater kit, got two on sale for $80 out the door. Ready for winter!

Amazon has that part # for $56 and it looks like it comes with 2 of the pads. Are they seat and back, or both seat?

NM- the description says seat and back... $80 is a good deal for 2

Correct. I would add it to your list and wait for the next sale if you’re not in need of it now. I am really happy with them
