    Always on USB mod.

    Removed the radio and reached behind the dash and easily popped out the Qi charger plug and replaced it with this:

    https://www.amazon.com/Cllena-Charg...t&qid=1563028559&s=gateway&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1

    I then reattached the Qi plug behind the dash and tucked it away, making sure it wasn't turned on.

    I ran the ground cable from the USB to an already existing ground that was located behind the radio on a piece of framing, then ran the power to an add a fuse tap to the fuse box in the truck. Easy! And so happy I now have a USB that works no matter if the truck is on or off.

    Back from powder coating and instal thanks to avid off-road, they did awesome work. Bumper is SSO, happy to hopefully get out of getting stuck a little easier.

    No link- they come with the tonneau, or at least the ones I think are made by Truck Hero (Extang, Gator, Tyger, etc.)- yes, a lot are made by the same company. I have an extra that's all yours if you PM your address:

    They look like they could have been OEM. Beautiful construction. And DOT approved.

    So the bumper is southern style off-road but I had avid powder coat/ instal because they did my sliders and bed rack which have been solid plus I worried about cutting the painted bumper. Anytime something is out of my range I go to avid because I can trust them. They always do great work at a very reasonable price. Also I like to support local companies

    I noticed you have the TRD PRO rigid industry fog lights (me too)....how's the color match on the fog light compared to your morimotos?

    Installed my SSO Slimline. Real pain in the ass to get the winch mounted in there but got it eventually. There are some really awesome install threads here that helped me out. Powder coat looks great and impressed with the quality. Time to go get stuck!

    Welcome!

    I just put sliders on my truck. It took me two different afternoons to install mine but it was fun.

    Those look great.
