    That's nice, but I'm not too sure about running the bottom ones. You just plugged the doors from expelling any water that gets in there. The weep holes allow for water to drain out of the door

    Everything I've seen suggests they're a fad, bed cracking does not seem to be a widespread issue but people claim it is

    Although I don't have the use for bed stiffeners because I have BillieBars installed for my specific application, I would think any extra support to the bed walls is a good thing if you are going to cap it with 150 lbs.+ topper or mount a tent with 2+ people sleeping in it.

    Maybe with cargo, a heavy topper, and a rooftop tent?


    I personally find ground-based camping sufficient and more affordable.

    My latest mod…I LOVE it! I have had people ask what it is and when I tell them they ask if I plan on rolling it ! Not very likely but it looks so good! Several months ago I also put a cool air intake on it…. It sounds better on the interstate but I haven’t noticed any significant change in MPG

    Is the BSM light that comes with the kit not bright enough? Is it easy to swap the lights if I need to?

    Its like a different yellow, more of a pee color yellow. I transfered the oem lights too. You just have to be careful because its held on by 3m clear tape.

    If I’m being honest, it’s the only way I can afford this hobby haha. The only thing I’ve not done myself is the lift kit install and that was only because I knew it would need an alignment and a CMC.

    Had a local shop install a new front bumper/roof rack. Couldn’t be happier. One day I’ll be rich enough to afford the light bars.

    easy enough. You'll need a prying tool. I used my OE light instead of the light that came with the wide angle mirrors since I was only doing the passenger side.

    The OE also uses tape, which is why you have to pry it out carefully in addition to snapping it out. I do have to reseat mine since the bottom half of the BSM doesn't light up evenly. I think there's a gap.
