    Installed my ram mount, my bluetooth obd2 reader, and a "monster" that my daughter drew

    I have the bluetooth obd 2 reader on a harness with an on/off switch because 12$ for thatis better than 60 for a reader withthe button on it. And I can tuck it all into this coin pocket which is nice

    20180514_182211.jpg

    Ram mount with wireless charger I attached to it, I have a 6 foot cord going to it, I haven't had time to wire it up like I want to yet

    20180514_182231.jpg

    My daughter's "monster" I put it here because who really looks at the tachometer anyways

    HVAC unit and clock are from 12-14 models. They have all white led lights. I got those on eBay. The radio bezel and shifter bezel are factory base model parts.

    I did mine last week, almost exactly the same. The sound is different. A little louder because it vents closer to the front and closer to the center of the truck. It’s a little more noticeable with the rear window open (on my access cab), but it has the same character of sound it did before. The sound change is worth peace of mind for not crunching it while wheeling.

    The same shit everyone else has.
    Thanks. Comes in handy for tailgate beers or an after fishing beer while packing gear up. Nice not worrying about knocking em over. I have one on the passenger side too. They are just velcro'd in place.

    Gander Mountain. It was a crappy generic sporting goods store similar to Dicks or Dunhams. Its a "dining canopy". They were blowing them out for cheap when they went out of business.

    Its 9'x9', and I modified it a bit to fit my need. I added telescoping poles to it to change the height. And I added a collapsible support bar to it where it sits over the shell.

    I have a manual & never use it. My original nor my current s10 never had a tach so I had to learn to use the speedometer & engine sound.

    The same.
    I use the economy mode on long journeys , riding quietly, 60 - 65 mph
    There's a worthy difference when you refill the tank

    yep..
    Started working on a platform for the back. Think I may remove the seats and console so it sits lower.
