New bulbs for the TB. The 5630's I had didn't suit my desires in the TB housing. Great in my other car but sucked in the TB.
Perfect packing job. Totally disappointed in it actually, have never seen such a shit pack job. Big box for little bulbs and very little in there to keep them from flopping around.
Had the little anti-static bag in there that I assumed they should be in, turns out it was only sealed halfway across the opening so I guess they fell out. Still though.

Knock on wood, I have not had to mess with the TB other than replacing a HVAC actuator.
The wife has been wanting a Bluetooth car kit to stream music/talk for the F150, but the factory radio does not have an auxiliary port. I finally found a company in Kissimmee, FL that sells auxiliary port adapter harnesses. Also received the Bluetooth car kit, RCA cable, and a ground loop isolator.

Just got my Android HU, 5.1 Lollipop. About $280CAD delivered direct fro Hong Kong. Will have to wait until I finish the valvetrain job.
Tastes like lead. Seriously, most of the Android HU's out there are running Android 4.x Kitkat and more expensive than this one. Hope it works out well. Only issue so far is that there is no installation manual for the wiring and some of the labels on the wires are misleading. Had a friend who can read Chinese translate what some of them said. For example, one said "Back car" and the Chinese said "Reverse control wire".

The mod bug got me!...Broke down and purchased a set of the Clear Mirror Lens 
...and a can of VHT Nite-Shade, just in case the LED'S I install are too bright...
Got them off Ebay but they still came at a price...
Oh well, you only live once, right.
Also ordered my 2nd set of LED Inserts from TXBLAZER last week, this set is Amber front/rear to install in the new Clear Mirror Lens...
My current Mirror setup is the Amber Lens with White LED Inserts (also purchased from member: TXBLAZER).....but not for long!

Received the Tru-Cool Trans Cooler Bypass...
From my understanding, the Bypass Valve fully opens at -/+ 180°...I plan to install it after the factory Radiator Cooler but before the Hayden Auxiliary Cooler. Thus Bypassing the Hayden Cooler unless temperatures require.

My first "don't leave home without it" back up part.
After having to fix it the other day figured I'd buy a back up, who knows when or where it'll let go again, this time I'm ready for it.

You'll like it, trust me.
Got my bank statement in my mail. Not as bad as I thought.
Installed and liking it.
Clock spring to steering wheel buttons harness (finally pulled the trigger) 
Box full of electrical outlets... 
I asked my landlord for permission to replace the majority of electrical outlets in the house, as most of them have really weak contacts that won't hold 2 prong plugs. If they don't fall out completely right away, they will come out halfway, and fall out when the plugs are wiggled.

Had been on the fence about trying these LEDs instead of my usual 5mm flat tops + resistor, for the steering wheel control buttons. Gonna see how good these are for the small size.

Got 3 of these starter relays/solenoids from China for my Yamaha sleds. Not bad, $6 instead instead of $60 at the dealer.
