Good eye on the instructions!! Actually that is what it started as was the regulator. Someone on here had posted about a possible fix with zip ties, so I removed the regulator to check out what my issue was. Could not find anything broken, so I ended up ordering a new one because it is getting slower and slower. Will install the new one this weekend. Next was speaker installation, however that did not get far because I was confused on why there were 4 wires going to the woofer. Got my answer on that, but ran out of time to install the new ones - will complete this weekend. Had just received my DICE unit, so that is why the back seat is out, the center console is disassembled, and the driver's seat is out. Had to rerun my connections for the satellite radio over to the DICE under the driver's seat so it is all hooked in together. HIGHLY recommend DICE!! While I was in the center console, I decided to finally switch the +/- in the manual mode to where it shifts like the newer ones - man if I had known it was going to be that easy, I would have done it months ago. Feels so much more natural pulling towards you to upshift - I have used the heck out of it since.

I must say after having done many installs on my vehicles, this vehicle is built like a tank compared to the others!!
