    Nice finishing touch with that brake light. Often overlooked safety feature.

    Is the housing watertight? Will the rain ruin the compressor?

    That's good to know when I finally mount my pelfreybilt skid. Do you know if there would be any issues mounting up to a mobtown front bumper?

    Stripped out rear seats/headrests, seatbelt buckles, factory woofer, and built a crude prototype custom deck for my 09 access cab. If I like the way the deck works in the next few weeks I'll be stripping out the rearmost interior panel and rear seatbelts, and fabbing up an aluminum tray with foam liner, and a removable quilted nylon one piece upholstery for the whole works. If I go through with it expect a build log.

    I love mine! The issue I have though (my own fault) I didn’t buy the right length bolt so it has to be in a certain position otherwise it’s loose..

    I have the aftermarket one and my friend has the real one. Side by side looks the same.. the Chinese ones are bit thinner but that’s about it.. no whistling I don’t think.. but I have a roof rack that always whistles haha. I paid whatever the group buy was.

    I may be wrong, and I'm sure someone that's smarter than me will let me know, but, ain't they all from china.

    Are you able to buy the cover by itself?

    Something like $40... Told them I’ve bought both my trucks from them, wife bought the RAV4 from them and is looking to trade for a 2018 camery and they won’t just give me the part?! I’ll do business elsewhere for now on
