    Heated Mirrors

    I found 8" round heated convex mirrors for 19.99 with free shipping so I ordered a set. That will give soldier B something to do next weekend when he is done with the headlight upgrade.

    What do think about posting when you're doing a recovery or say announcing that you'll be gone out out of state (with wife) doing multiple recoverys ? Maybe we need to send a security team to Westys to check his house? Asking for contact info along a route might be a bad idea cuz people will...

    You're right - bad stuff would have happened - my sweet wife might have had to call the police after the dog attacked an intruder or even defend herself if someone made it into the house. That's of course if the alarm company wasn't doing their job. Really good advice is never tell anyone on...

    Mirrors were iced over this morning in camp. Fired up the truck and flipped on the switch for the mirrors. Before I could even start the propane heater to de ice the windows the mirrors were clear. I ran them 5 minutes and shut them off. They stayed clear after that, but it got warmer as I...

    Installed the heated mirrors today. 1/4 inch hole into the cowl which I sealed with paintable sealer. I thought about running the wires through the mirror support brakets, but Rat4Spd convinced me it wasn't woth the effort and the Army would not have done it. Simple install - power wires to a...

    Heated Mirrors

    My heated mirrors just arrived. Pretty simple install that I hope to get to this week. One wire each side to ground and one wire each side to a toggle switch pulling power from my 12 volt fusebox. Looks like I will need two small holes to run the wires into the cab and a 1/2 inch hole in the...

    Heated Mirrors

    I just ordered these: West Coast Mirror Signal-Stat 7093 Heated - eBay (item 180546631175 end time Jan-10-11 06:20:04 PST) Didn't ask if the were 12 or 24 volt since I have both systems. After going out in the cold rain last week for that double rescue I quickly saw a need for heated...
