Co-worker gave me one of them cheapo OBD interface (ELM327) and played around a bit

Faster time is a slight brake torque

Found this wire (yp & blk) back taped to the OBD connector wiring harness.

Also played with the AlphaOBD demo AP. And of course none of the modules are reachable. I need to find someone with the OBDMX+ in the Cheyenne area to test the AEV bypass kit before buying anything

There is only one "wax" that I know of that will last about that long and that is Collinite-and it is sort of a hybrid wax/sealant. I don't know anything about Car Guys but would be interested in your results.

I will keep you posted Jay.
I did some research before purchasing and it got great reviews and has amazing hydrophobic properties.

Spray wax? Is that the hybrid wax or something else? Does it come in a spray bottle of so you use a pressure washer attachment to spray it on?
Spray it on like a detailing spray. Mist on,....let it sit for a couple of seconds and wipe off. Super easy.
Works really well, just doesn't last very long. I bought it for ease of use and that it can be applied in the direct sunlight safely.

Tons of trails. Arizona is full of mountains and forest. Dont let the movies fool ya it’s not all desert haha. But def has them too. There are so many old Forrest roads and mine road you can drive every weekend or a life time and never hit every trail. Some are very tough some are mild. Every weekend is an adventure

We spend 2 months every winter in Arizona camping with our ATV. Great riding and lots of it.

Got one of the 1aauto mirrors bolted on, only to find this:

Stock on L, 1aauto on the R. Pics sent to their quality department. Considering returning them and buying a used set of non-towing mirrors.

I have exactly the same issue as you do with my 2017 converting to power fold! I've had an open ticket with them since last Friday with no resolution yet. Let me know how you come out.

I did notice that they made them "out of stock" now on their website.

Have you looked at your door modules?

I believe the connectors for the door modules have "clamshells" that go over the actual connector blocks that are already on the wiring.

You might need the clamshell portion, or it might already be there and you disconnect it from the existing mirror wiring when you remove them and swap them onto the replacement mirrors wiring.

This:

Snaps onto (around) this:

Or the black connector slides into the side of the blue one...Im not sure, never had to take mine apart.

Got my carven competitor kit on last evening. For only a 2 year old truck with 17,000 miles on it the factory muffler was awful to get off the tail pipes! But in the end it was worth it cause it sounds great lol
