    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Check out my fire extinguisher.

    I used like 1/4"/1" bolts + washers on either side, plus a lock washer then bolted them down. Holds REAL good. The fiberglass bed is surprisingly tough.

    Proper mirror adjustment and you don't need to. You should touch your head to the driver's side window then adjust the mirror until you just barely cannot see the side of the truck anymore. You'll have no blind spot.

    For the passenger mirror lean over the center console and push the mirror out until you can just barely see the truck side. No more blind spot.

    It can be a bit disorienting at first. Especially depending on how you use your mirrors?

    Slight amendment: you still have a blind spot, but, it's at such an angle that when you glance to the mirror you can see the blind spot clearly through the window.

    @Bluebear What made you choose 2.0" with reservoir rather than 2.5" or 2.5"/res? Or was the 2.0" retrofitted?

    So this just happened. It's not perfect by any means but it will do for now.

    Everyone calls it plastic/polymer. Drill it out, it's definitely not plastic. The inside of the little cubby-hole doors is plastic. Drill out there and compare the two.

    If you'd like additional proof rub the material from the bedside all over your arms, report back later with how it goes.

    If you're talking about the glovebox switch, it's eBay item 311480374790 It works perfectly for this use.
