I will let you guys know. It will probably be around or shortly after 12. I plan to pull the cab tomorrow evening so everything will be open and easy to get to.

Well I got some more work done on the truck last night. Pulled the cab off the frame, pulled the driveshaft and got the stock turbo, up-pipes, fuel bowl, and all the wiring, etc off the top of the motor. Going to pressure wash the engine and trans tonight and hopefully pull the motor and trans to start tearing the motor down to install the cam.

So I got a little bored lasts night waiting for the storm to get here and went into the shop. I got the gen3 installed, exhaust manifolds pulled and the headers mounted. Unfortunatly I was working on the turbo mount when the power went out and I had to call it a night. Hoping to get back in there in a couple of days and get the turbo mounted and plumbed in.

Vader do you have a link to show how you wired in your power mirrors?

when i did mine, i went from power paddle mirrors, to 05-07 power/heat tow mirrors. the power mirror functions, were colored the same on both the paddle and tow mirrors. i just had to add the turn/running/heat to it.
an option i did, is i got mine from a boneyard. car-part.com . they shipped the mirrors, and i asked for the door side plug in also. they simply clipped the plug and shipped it also. radioshack also has plug-ins you can retro-fit, but my thought, is i usually break one mirror a year, so if i used a retro-fit plug in, i would have to re-wire everytime i break one. this way, its still oem plug-n-play.
