I made a little cheat sheet to look at because by time it runs out I forget what I did to renew

These are a direct swap. The turn signals will work automatically. For the heated mirrors you will need the radio bezel with rear defrost button which activates the heated mirrors too. I know ray318 did this swap so maybe send him a PM.

I will try not running the OBD wiz at the same time.

Thanks for thanks for the tips!


Got it working, it was either the OBD Wiz program running or it was my Blue tooth mouse that was causing the issue, I suspect it was the mouse.

I remember seeing where you can change tire size and rear gear ratio. Can someone point me to where those were at?

Thanks

Ah okay, I have a XLT radio bezel (sync 3 swap), but I swapped my buttons in place over the original buttons since I didn't want the heated seat buttons. Was hoping there was a way to have them heat with the regular defrost instead of rear.

No, that appears to just be a DTC reader.

This one will work though:
Amazon Amazon

Thanks, I'm not looking for cheaper, even though cheaper is always better lol, I'm just looking for something I can buy in person at say autozone/advanced. Autozone has the innova 3100. But I'm still not sure if that is the right tool. Otherwise I'll end up ordering the obdlink mx.
