Got these in yesterday and adding them to the build. The old ones were PlastiDip. I think these will go better with the shiny new parts and the new front grille.
So, yesterday I got a handy dandy little tool in from Amazon that allows me to use FORScan to enable some features on my truck. Once I got home from work, I went straight to playing with some settings. The tutorial is very informative and the software is pretty easy to follow once you understand what you're looking at. So, I added the climate control to my radio, changed the boot loading animation, and the theme. Then I disabled the annoying chime when the door is open and the key in the ignition. These little mods were fairly easy to do and fun so now I have the bug for adding modules just so I can make the changes in FORScan. Lol.
I will add bambi mode when I get from our trip to complete the build. I can't think of a reason to have global windows. Can you tell me a benefit? I already have resistors wired in for my LEDs. However, when my auto start/stop goes to stop, as it starts back up something flashes and that's a bit irritating. Would disabling the bulb outage correct this?
I plan to use global windows mainly in the summer time. Rolling down the windows to let the hot air out, then remote start the truck (a/c set to on) then I can roll the windows up a few minutes later. Thats mainly what I plan on.
That's a very good idea. I never even considered that. Now, I'm adding that to the list.
Now, what about the LEDs? I have LEDs everywhere and resistors to prevent hyperflash. If I disabled the bulb outage, would it prevent the flash of light when the truck auto starts when I go to take off after it auto stopped?
I can;t help with that, I have a lowly XL........lol. I purposely didn't use LED's until I did the Forscan bulb outages. No way was I hacking into my new trucks wiring. Then, I went and did it to add a 10 way power driver seat, go figure.
