    Did the blue painters tape come with it? ;). How did you run the wire to the lower console and install the switches?

    Slight glare off the hood but nothing unbearable! Painters tape holding down the roof seal till the rtv dries lol! Ran the wires down outside of the truck tucked in the windshield channel! Hooked up with 12 relay and everything! Will attach night shot!

    Ran the wire threw the firewall hole! Trimmed dash just little bit the the switches popped rite in! Hardest part was figuring out how to take the entire dash apart to run all the wires! I'm sure a 50" would work!ImageUploadedByTapatalk1371317592.294197.jpg
