    Install is super easy, lots of heat and your soild. I have tons of stuff wrapped on my truck, My favorite is 3m carbon, but it is textured, and if you use it on the outside of your rig, and get wax on it, youll have to replace the wrap since the wax WILL NOT come out. I've been using vivvid vynil and its decent.

    Gave her a bath and the trailer too. Tint is looking wayyy dark and I love it. That’s 35% tint upfront and 5 around the rears, I love how they all look like they’re painted. If only NC wasn’t strict

    Install is like one bolt, and the light comes out. (10mm I think) just look it up on Amazon.

    It was easy to do. Your right the bottom needs wrapping too. I tried to do it but could not make the wrap stick. I think I have too much wax on it. I will take it off and get the wax off and try again. Ran out of wrap.

    I purchased on Amazon with two day shipping... Super simple installation... 3 bolts per side for taillight assembly, twist out the bulb holder slip your old bulb out, LED in, replace the holder and taillight assembly. If in doubt, there's always YouTube... I'm certain you won't regret the change

    Easy fix with some basic tools. Also sugest front seal. Just make sure the garage is extra clean when ever you open up the engine. If worried about reassembly take pictures of everything before disasembly.

    Been using a tablet to run maps.me for navigation a lot recently. Needed a way to secure the tablet, yet keep it accessible and visible.
    Can't take all the credit for this one, @RavageRule suggested using a suction cup.

    $2 suction cup from Harbor Frieght (rated @ 80lb)
    Misc Ram Mount components I already had.

    Holds tight even on bumpy roads.

    Bought a cap for it yesterday. Now I'm sitting here trying to decide which route I'm going to go for a lift. I'm indecisive as shit when it comes to this type of stuff. Just need to pull the trigger on one of them.
