Best Prices for the modules that I have found are on ebay (search "pac tr-7"). But you can also sometimes find them at a local stereo/alarm installing shop since these moduels can be used for more than what I used it for depending on how you program them. Soem times these things are called alpine bypass modules too, it just what they orginally were designed to do. I use this same module for a pulse counter in my auto tailgate opener project.

Yes the dash light do not change function so after you start the truck the light will be on as if you hit the button for the 5 seconds and if you like to turn it off just hit the normal vsc button on the dash and everything goes off again. You can also put a switch inline with say the wiring going to the vsc switch this way it functions normaly unless you have the swicth on then it will automaticly bypass it for you at each start cycle.

What is the VSC (forgive my ignorance, i just didnt wanna look in the book!)

I thought that button was only for off roading situations where you would need the limited slip

VSC = Vehicle Stability Control

Used to help keep the vehicle on the road when it thinks there some slipping occuring in the wheels by apply braking to the wheel that is breaking loose from bad weather or hard acceleration. Thus people don't like it when it kicks in on its own around turns or during hard take offs.

Well glad there are a few more TS members finding this mod worth the little work and time it takes. I will say since I wrote this up I did add a switch inline with the modules wiring going to the VSC switch so its in the panel right next to it so now I can keep it totaly disabled and let it run as stock or flip the switch and have it disable the VSC each time the truck starts.

Let us know how things work out.....
