What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yes, I have one and love it so far. I don't know if you're aware, but you need to be careful when you go to enlarge the driver side drain hole for the drainage tube they include, the fuel fill line is right underneath it and myself and others have had it punctured by installers when they go to do that step, and it's a very expensive repair. Luckily the shop that did the install for me covered the cost of replacing the hose, but someone installing it themself would be in bad shape if they had to pay to replace that hose.

 

I've had mine for 20k miles and love them

These are the same lights I used for my current set-up.



These are night and night output shots, thought I had a daylight pic here but can not seem to find it. If/when i have located or taken a new one i can post it up.

 

I gotta go (1)

 

The pieces pop of pretty easy. There are some instruction vids on YouTube. Unscrewing the actual trim pieces from the cluster panel was kind of a pain, just had to find the right phillips head. No red stitching for me. Part of the reason the orange trim just looked off in my truck. Didn’t match anything except the JBL logo.

Can a guy drill those bed drain holes out from underneath the truck?

 

I've not pushed my truck that far. I haven't run out of gas since my high school days, and I don't care to go down that road again. In your case, I guess if you coasted into the station out of gas, your effective MPG for the tank full would be 19.53 (412/21.1) which is pretty doable, although winter makes this a bigger challenge.

 

Had a quarter tank left when I filled up. I haven't been down the out-of-gas road, nor do I care to get close either. The anxiety of potentially walking down the road with a gas can is enough to keep me from tempting that fate.

 

Can you take a shot in daylight without them on? Want to get a feel for placement. These would also be real nice on a roof rack it seems.

 

Just went out and took a couple. I put the bracket on the rear most bumper bolt.
I am running a prototype of @mesojdm total tail harness. Mine is just the harness with relocation of the turn to the reverse bucket and reverse to the pods. If I am able to get in on the next full led release I will likely be selling my prototype harness.

 

Am now in the market for a new head unit:

Whatever is going to be most useful when you wheel the truck.

I didn't get a prinsu for a while because I'd rather spend money on armor.

 

your rear bumper is just like mine, see how the drivers side has a weird gap kind of near the license plate area, and is a bit higher, where the right side doesnt, and is a touch lower. I am going to realign mine this weekend.

 

Yeah, I think it is only the cap that is slightly "out" and could be adjusted. It just has not made it to the top of my to do list yet.

It may move up quicker now that "someone" has tapped my OCD senses button.

 

I don't believe so, at least not on the drivers side because its above the gas tank.

 

I was wondering if the gas tank was in the way. Guess a guy could use a Dremel tool from the top or just drill new holes in the front bulkhead.

 

If I had to do it myself I would go under and slide some sheet metal or something over the mesh fuel hose, or do as others have done and use a barbed hose reducer fitting and put the small end through the existing hole

 

I routed my cover drains out the front. Drilled new holes about an couple inches below the rails and pushed the drain line out with 6 or so inches pointing down between the cab and bed. I have had 0 problems with it and it does not block any cargo since it is so high in the upper/outer corners of the bed.

 

Mine too, but with 6050 miles.
