Yes very much but it keeps blowing the fuse and to this day I can't trace the short. Right now I'm having trans problems so the stereo is farther down on my list. I'm praying it's only the flex plate like I think it is.

Is it blowing the fuse in the truck or the back of the radio?

My rear doors are becoming tedious to open. If the thumb button isn't pressed the right way (not too hard, not too soft) or you aren't pulling on in the handle ever so lightly (not too much or too little) the door won't unlatch and the thumb button acts like the door is locked and just sorta mushes in. Is this an adjustment I can make?

I don't know how to post a picture of my crew. I tried via iPhone, then iPad, then Windows via Explorer then via Chrome. I give up. You all don't want me here. This is obvious. Whatever.

Actually, it has to do with the number of posts. I think 25 posts gets you more privileges like posting pictures.

Most of the truck forum websites are the same. I havw an account with probably 4 or 5 other truck forum sites and this is the busiest.

Actually you don't have to go to Photobucket anymore. Just click on the second to last icon right above where you type in the message (the one that looks like a small mountain) and you can browse your computer for a photo to insert.

I believe that is because you are a supporter. I believe that the us freeloaders don't have that ability.

nope they changed recently so that non supports can take a pic off their computer and upload it. Only thing I don't like is it is a bit to big.
