Got my lightining extension cable from Hong Kong yesterday. It passed all functions and so far works perfectly. It allowed me to hide the HDMI adapter and clean up my install.

I am very happy.

Before:


After:












It is running through this plugable port which keeps charging and gives me 3 open USB ports.

Mirrors came in.

I did not know I had heated mirrors. How do they activate?

I think they made a butterfly.

lol

Thanks for the heated mirror info btw.

As I am in Az. and the truck was sold here I assumed I had no cold weather options seeing as cold here is 50 (natives act like they are in the tundra in December when that happens) cracks me up.
