Yep, that's Luke. Good dude!

 

I had every intention of cleaning the garage tonight. When I got home, I looked at the lawn and knew it needs my help. So, instead, I spent the night getting the sprinkler system up and running. Without fail, I have at least one sprinkler broke. This year it was two.

 

Covered the lawn duty's at the house last week, no bad or stuck heads. Need a edger for the kids place, 500 feet of sidewalk at the front now = 1000 feet of edging. Course, the machine I'm interested in runs 700 new.... yea, curapp! Really didn't expect that for an edger. Attempted the craigs list thing and for once, I lucked out. Found the same machine just a few years older with 20 hours on it for 165. I'm like, no way....

Talked with the guy, got the serial, it's straight up the same machine. 30 minutes away, picking it up tomorrow.... before someone else nabs it. Almost forgot how a really good deal felt...it's been awhile I guess lol.

 

Cha-ching! Nice score, Brew!

 

My goodness, it's sure quiet up in this place lately. Everyone must be enjoying the spring weather, LOL.

 

For the sake of discussion, does anyone have detailed pictures of the signal mirrors with the caps removed and/or experience with the wiring harness(es)? I'm thinking about adding some cameras to mine but the caps were glued on by a PO and I don't want to destroy them for exploration (plus I physically couldn't if I wanted to, at least for another few weeks). I'm curious where there's enough clearance for a flush mount camera, which are only ~1" in dia. and varying depths, and for the cable, and whether there's room for that cable to follow the existing harness(es) into the cabin.

 

I think I still have a mirror housing in the garage. Where are you planning to install the cameras? In the bottom? As for wiring, what's the diameter? If it's relatively small, there should be no problem getting it into the cab with the existing.
