Yes the bags help with sag, a lot!!! They also help with sway.. run seperate air lines to each side and it will help with sway.

I got the Air lift set from Greg at PRG..

I installed my Prodigy V2.6 controller (finished it last night) in my NewToMe 2007 LE CC.

I read the forum postings in several threads and really wore myself out groping and pulling under the dash. I COULD NOT find the connector that BigTow offers. I found one posting that Made Pictures, and that should have been enough.... but NO. In desparation, I finally found the two screws below the dash that hold the bottom half of the dash panel. Removed. Careful pulling and 'working' the panel edges, and it Finally Popped Free !!

There it is !! No way I would have found it with my Groping Approach. Got the extra cost Tekonsha-Titan cable plugged in, and It Works!!

Replacing the panel was a bit of an exercise in careful placement - there are several spring-loaded prongs that keep the panel from shifting after it is snapped back together, and one of the lower screw locations had to be bent back a bit to prevent cross-threading when I put it all back. Easy, but not quick.

The whole thing took about a half hour. I have the Prodigy mount/bucket on the left side of the steering column, so I had to coil up most of the connect cable. Fits under the dash by friction and cable tension.

I'm a happy camper so far. Now to connect the trailer and verify, verify, verify (who was it that said "Trust, but Verify"??)
