    On Saturday:
    I started wiring the connectors for my radio/navigation install (had to wait on wire).
    I ran the correct size wire from the ECM for cruise (other wire was too thick and wouldn't go into the spiral cable connector).
    Tightened down the XM antenna and ran the cable with the AM/FM antenna cable.

    I also ordered some terminals for the factory relay box (the small one on well equipped trucks). My truck didn't come with one but I'm adding it and using it for: inverter, fog lights and bed lights. That will leave me with two spots open. The rest of the lights will be on a stand alone relay box (Bussmann).

    More stuff planned for today.

    Replaced my OEM's with some DEPO's due to internal hazing, tossed in Osram Night Breakers and will get around to putting in my LED DRLs (not switchbacks) today if I can figure out which specific wires I need to tap into for the load resistors (left my test light at work)

    thanks man! as someone that lives in the north east and deals with a lot of snow ive really come to love amber light...in snowing or whiteout, or even conditions with heavy rain the amber doesn't blind and allows me to see contours much better...you loose all depth perception with the white light!

    I've never heard it called that before, but whatever couples do on their own is fine by me!

    Bumper is a US Offroad. It has tabs built in for the fog lights. The fogs are rigid.

    What's your opinion on this light bar? I've looked at the 38" version for my roof rack since it looks to be an exact copy of the ExtremeLED X6S light bar but half the price.

    Trying to achieve my goal of filling all the buttons on my switch panel, I added some prime day deal 7" "flood" light bars acting as chase lights and also some rear lighting. Tinted my area lights with some yellow film to have a more natural color along with being able to seen as chase lights better. Also added some waterproof plug connectors to make it so my topper can be removed easily. Installed AVS in channel rain guards so I can crack my windows to let out some Florida heat.

    What a difference. I need to do this with my '12. Is eBay still the place to find the Depo lights?
