cool i almost got that one! for 30 i can order later if this one is too cold.
with the 6 holes drilled in my stocker it just takes too long to warm up.

not sure where else to post this but is helpful info.
i dont have my 160 yet but driving cold weather with way too many holes drilled in stocker..
first my analog gauge went out, then the digital display also fell to zero
fan stayed running high when cut off then
on next start up i got engine code, P0128 and P2230
second one didnt come back but first one is -Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Below Thermostat Regulating Tempurature.
fans i can understand, loosing sensor communication with dash just because is running cold is BS and a little scary. glad i had my $30 bluetooth scanner and torque free app!
hopefully this doesnt happen with the 160!
--once i cleared the code and did a restart, everything back operational.

it is a replacement wax bulb.. it is ONLY a replacement wax bulb..
as affordable as that is compared to lmr, still a let down they don't supply an entire thermostat :/ not expecting entire housing..
this is somewhat confusing vid from guy who swapped bulb

I wanted to tie my install thread to this one. Thanks to LS2000 for motivation and Lingenfelter for a reasonable part
