Stupid question #1
Ok here goes, nothing endears you to a group like a stupid question, what do the little lights on the interior mirror indicate? I swear I read the manual and searched the internet and the forum but can’t find an explanation.
Also, can anyone offer an opinion on installing a “front leveling kit” on their Ranger.
Thanks much.

Yea, stock rangers don't have lights on the rearview nor sideview mirrors unless their aftermarket.

Re: Stupid question #1
Ok guys, first off it scares me when everybody says they didn't come with that!, but heres a pic. In the pic you can see there a little display on the top right corner of the mirror that tells you either which direction your going or the temp. and at the bottom center are the buttons to switch the display. On either side of those button are little lights left side red right side green and I have no idea what they mean!
Any explaination would be muy appreciado!

Someone else installed that. It's not factory. May have been a dealer installed accessory, or a previous owner may have installed it.

What you have there is a Gentex Autodimming mirror with the temp and compass. It comes factory on a lot of vehicles, just not a Ranger. I installed one on my Ranger (best mod I've done). Mine displays both at the same time, so I can't answer your question about the red and green lights on the front. They could be sensors orlights to indicate which display you are seeing.
