I'm still a little shocked that heater control heads aren't available from GM or aftermarket. It's just silly....

I modded my stock radio earlier this week, so it now has the aux. input for my ipod. A USB connection would be nice tho.

I'd like to figure out how to put my itunes library on a thumbdrive. That would be cool.

Easy. Just find the itunes media folder on your computer and copy/send it all to a thumbdrive big enough to hold it.

I'm not 100% positive, but I can find a truck around me to try it out maybe. I will let you know, and yes it has AC.

Hey Roger, if I can desolder/resolder the bulbs out/in, you can man...with all of the coffee that I drink I'm a pretty shaky dude and I managed to make it work

RadioShack not only has the bulbs that you need, but cool desoldering tools to make the process a snap

I have to replace the bulb in my recirc button myself, same deal, it goes off, I tap it and it goes back on. I did a bunch of bulbs in my unit a few years back and it went pretty quickly and smoothly.
