LOL...Its not like a cup can fit there. I think that change was there when I bought the truck. I also found a checkbook (previous owners) in the center storage area. I think this was the first time I was in there since I bought the truck.

Re: my small project

Something I would recommend is connecting your laptop wire harness into the existing harness and covering the end of the plug. I just noticed. You've got a serial plug on the underside of the dash already. If you did the harness plug for the TCI that would look good doing it right next to that one. This way you don't have to fish the harness out to plug it in if you ever wanna change shift points. Try doing the "eco/perf" wire hooked up to a switch that goes to ground and do some experimenting. You won't hurt it:tup:

Actually I'd be disappointed if you didn't get us into a fight :rotf:

Have you heard if he's having one this year, or when? I haven't talked to him in a long time so I don't know what his thoughts are. More then likely if he has a party I'll try and be there, last year was a blast! :tup:

Watch out. I carry a weapon now. Insulin syringes. :rant: I am having complications right now. I hope to finish my truck next weekend. This week I have been to the hospital 2 times already and its only wednesday.
