NO pictures yet, but what a mess. When GD installed the backing plate they striped 3 of the 4 mounting screws and they already upsized them from a #8 to #10. The one that was holding is a #8. I am talking about the original baking plate. To compensate they used silicone behind the rubber gasket. The next size up is 1/4" I believe, but I am not sure the Vision Works adapter plate holes are big enough.
Now I know the original Furrion power plug is tied into the clearance lights (old camera power on when light were on). However I cannot find where GD tapped into the light wiring. It appears to run up into the clearance light channel, but after pulling 2 lights I cannot find the splice, I managed to break one of the clearance lights in the process.
Then trying to find room for the Vision works cabling from the camera, I think they could work on minimizing this. The void in the foam behind the old Furrion mount was very small. I hollowed out the foam to try and find the original splice to make space. I managed to stuff everything in finally.
Its currently cobbled together, but I am off to find screws and a new lens. Befor taking it apart again I plan to see if it works when the truck is connected up.
So if anyone knows where the splice is, please let me know, or other suggestions.
Thanks Keith
