    Rearview camera mod WITH NAV

    I did the rear camera mod! And it works great. Thanks to everyone who went before me, especially Antman and those with pictures! Without your blazing work, I wouldn't have attempted this. And, it'll come in handy when I'm pulling the flat-bed trailer. But, While I had the NAV unit hanging...

    5th gen locking center console mod

    I also bought the console vault. Works great for my needs, and I feel better about leaving items in the truck. Kind of pricey, but it's well built and worth it. t4rJohn

    Looking for a Cargo Carrier for rear hitch.

    I also use the Harbor Freight version. I got the steel one since it was only a couple pounds heavier than the Al one. On sale, and with their ubiquitous 20% off coupon, it was under $50. t4rjohn

    ABR Sidewinder, dual batt tray GROUP BUY

    Got my PM. Taken care of. Hope everyone else jumps on it quickly so you aren't left hanging out there. Without a group buy, I'd never go through the hassle of ordering one of these from across the pond. I just hope I can get the 2nd battery installed and the project completed sometime this...

    ABR Sidewinder, dual batt tray GROUP BUY

    And you shouldn't take it in the wallet. I believe all GB organizers should at least profit, in addition to good karma and our well wishes, a good meal and a few drinks for the effort. I didn't get another PM yet. Will you add that cost difference into the PM for shipping, or should we just...

    Prolong the life of your 5th Gen and toys

    I saw this in an industrial catalog. Worked out to something like $120-150 for enough to coat 42 sq ftl, the smallest cans they sold. It's a two part spray on product. I though it'd work really well on the motorcycle But at that price I will never know.:mmph: John

    On myh 2011 LE with the NAV screen, there's a setting in the menu that sets the brightness of the NAV/CD/MAP/etc display. It came defaulted at 50%. I raise it to abou 80% normally, down to about 20% at night if I'm on a highway trip. This display is unaffected by the dimmer knob on the...

    Air Filter

    that white layer on the air filter Leave it on there. I drove about 50 miles over some gravel roads a few weeks ago. Noticed my milage was down about 2 mpg a week later. I didn't think about the dust from that road, and figured I got some different blend gasoline causing the mileage drop...

    No Rinse - Thanks

    Thanks for the thread bump. I'm one of those new guys that will be ordering some. I use the no-touch car wash ('cause I'm lazy) weekly, but this will probably be better and faster than a trip there as well as saving money. John
