Thanks to the forum member threads and SEM Black! Also got the cigarette lighter working again - now my GPS won't die on the way to Carlisle!

Hardly need GPS to find Carlisle, it is the exit off the PA Turnpike that they have been working on for 20 yrs (causing disruptions to the flow of traffic off the Turnpike) , and it is the 4 mile long traffic jam to the Carlisle Fairgrounds, all you have to do is follow all the uninformed zealots and you will end up in the same cess pool as them!!!!! ENJOY................................... .......

I really only need it for finding restaurants - I know it's pretty much a straight run. Thanks anyway.

Looks great! Have fun @ Carlisle. Once you arrive, you'll feel like you've made it to heaven! Wish I was able to make it, but my daughter goes back to college this weekend. What's the device on the steering column?

Thanks for the compliment! That's a shift light on the steering column, the former owner put it on, haven't gotten around to taking it off yet. It's set for 6400 rpms - which I know I'll never do.
