    Tonight I wired up my pop n lock (PL8540) to go with my Bakflip G2. Wiring it up was simple. The toughest part was running the wires under the truck and keeping them tight and out of the way of moving parts. Took my about 2 hours thanks to the write up already on this site. Wired it up to the driver's side back door so it only unlocks with a double tap of the remote. Now my bed is secure when I put luggage or baby stroller in there.

    Well I went ahead and dipped the grill surround last night. For the $11 I spent on the Plasti-Dip im very impressed. The color matches alot better than I thought it would. The look is exactly what IIMG_3091.jpg IMG_3092.jpg wanted. I went ahead and separated the surround from the grill and that was alot easier than I had heard it would be.
