Sorry... I only check in now and again.

It took about an hour to run all of the wiring including the temp sensor which sits out below the front bumper and has to be pushed through the firewall gasket.

The mirror installation was pretty easy; it's a remove and replace on the '06 using a Gentex mirror. As for the wiring, you just just take out a couple screws to remove the overhead console, sun visor, and A pillar interior grab handle and trim to get access to the overhead and fuse box areas. You could probably leave the sun visor alone and still get the wires routed cleanly but why tempt fate.

Then you pull all of your wires and your temp sensor up the a pillar, and then along the front of the head liner to the opening at the overhead console. A few pieces of electrician's tape secures the wires to the A pillar harness to keep things from rattling around the connecting harness just comes out of the headliner above the mirror. I didn't even bother with the wire cover sold by GenTex as they're hidden from outside by the dot matrix sun screen on the windshield and from the inside it doesn't look all that bad either.

I noticed you have a power mirror in your truck?
did you install that yourself?how hard was it?
is there a way to coverup the wiring?
