    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    Cali Raised Ditch Light and Brackets

    Blue Sea Aux Fuse Panel with 100 Amp circuit breaker. I am going to have to fix the Positive cables in the future as I could only find AWG 6 in red locally, all I am running at the moment is the underhood lights and these Ditch Lights and a 40" Lightbar soon. I think the AWG 6 will be ok for that for the time being, once I get more I will switch it out.

    Installed some EGR Window Visors that I picked up off of Amazon for like $50. Super easy to install and they look so much better than the stick on kind.

    Here is the link if anyone is interested - http://amzn.com/B000NPS086

    Can anyone recommend a good stubby antenna? Preferably on Amazon? I was all set to pull the trigger on one last night and then started looking through reviews and got scared off. I don't care so much about reception as 99.9% of the time I'm streaming something through bluetooth, but the stories about fading, rusting, staining and breaking off along with highway whistling got me nervous. Was hoping for some suggestions from people who have them and haven't had any major problems?

    I have "the stubby" and its great! No fading, rusting, or anything. also no problems with radio reception. Check it out. Reviews are absolute shit but i love mine and would recommend it.

    Did it a few weeks ago, but got around to making Paracord grab handles for headrests, and wrapped all the oh sh!t bars. In purple of course. image.jpgimage.jpg image.jpg

    Correct sir. I followed that DIY (yours right?) to build my mount setup. I absolutely love it.

    I was under the impression that the DOT requires a certain amount of protection across the front of the vehicle. These fill the gap on the sides to make it DOT compliant. It's kind of like SUVs and vans installing tow bars, but not the tow "package" behind the rear plastic bumper to save them money and they charge you for the tow bar.

    Installed a Pyle plcmdvr7g rear view mirror with built in dash cam and GPS! It also has Bluetooth but the factory is better than the mirrors bt.

    Crazy how they stuffed that much in there and then omitted the Homelink features. Looks great though.

    I completely agree but for only $60 with a Groupon I couldn't pass it up. Thanks!
