Am I correct of did the unit you purchased have the fibre optic hookups?
Mine is an SE so only had the CD400 without fibre optic system, there is a fibre optic harness but unsure what functions you will lose but from what i have read you will lose sat nav,cruise control and clock - i only lost the clock.
The head unit GPS is probably better and possibly could output to the factory screen as well.

When I fit my sliders I used a 2x4 and a jack to hold them up while I bolted them

So I cleatec off the Baja Rack in preparation for moving it over to the new owners truck on Saturday. So off with the Jerry cans, awning, tire and cb.



Then I moved on to pulling both my front tires and strut assemblies to swap to Old Man Emu HD coils.



So while they were off the truck, a coat of primer and paint went on..





Then the struts came off and I got the springs swapped only on the front though unfortunately.



New coils look to be 2.5mm thicker.



Nothing sketchy to see here....
