Now that is a sweet junkyard! I'm so spoiled with the past 2 parts trucks. LKQ self serves is an hour away and that would have cost 160...even though I scored a mint radiator for 50 there once

Without this place I could not afford this vehicle, nice to have spare parts, only bought the steel rim for spare tire once I go bigger with tires so i can use the plastic hubcap since the factory tire cover will no longer fit

Added a steering wheel remote and IR repeater for the Kenwood full DIN GPS. I love the touch screen, but it's distracting to reach over when driving.

Tom,

I need a replacement rear view as well, can you do a writeup on upgrading/rewiring?
