    Is that color matched? If your fogs ever break (and they will), check out Slee Off-road. They have a nice metal housing for the fog lights and turn signals. Just got mine done yesterday. 90698741-C951-4700-A7B2-942072F7DA44.jpg

    So they have some that also have 3 red LED lights on the face of them, I wonder if those could be wired to the brake lights?

    I saw the original thread about those and I think that OP said they only had one connection. So unless you want to hack into them and split the power, I'd guess no.

    Yes it's color matched and the fogs and 8.5" are not ARB lights. They are made by STEDI from Australia. They better not break.
    EDIT. reread your post mis read "metal housing" nice!

    Installed a Sony XAV-AX1000 Head Unit. Digging it so far, and now I can start thinking about putting in a backup cam.

    That stereo & that whole dash area looks very nice & sleek. Is that how the truck came (besides the stereo)?

    Yeah, that's the original dash on my 2007 base model. I did add the Boba and Bison, though. The Sony is a XAV-AX1000. I got it and the double DIN dash kit from Crutchfield.

    It will, but you would need to buy an adapter that runs around 59 bucks. Screen Shot 2019-03-30 at 6.34.18 PM.jpg

    Yes, there are at least two brands of programmable adapters that you can buy to install and keep the steering wheel controls.

    Big thanks to @hyper15125. I installed a set of retros I got from him a few weeks ago. Awesome job he did on the build for sure. I still have to adjust when it gets dark for me. But love the look.
    I am beyond happy.

    Oh there will be some mods all right
    I think I need a new skid plate. Any ideas on which one would go best with the bumper?
