    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.

    Too much to list
    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.

    The only advantage to replacing bumpers is for clearance when off-roading.

    I ripped the roof panel out and sound deadened the entire roof of the vehicle with Butyl rubber and 315 mil closed cell foam. Also did the back wall.

    Getting it back in right was a gargantuan PITA (Yeah I went a bit to thick). Not sure if it was worth it, but I keep telling myself that now it's "Done" and I can enjoy it for the next 300k miles.

    If you're reading this. Don't do it. At least don't do the roof.

    Yeah prob won’t go through the hassle of switching out the Bsm light unless there is really good reason. It’s already annoying enough to cut off and replace all the heatshrink on the heater wires mine don’t come off w/o doing that.

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    I did the entire truck interior and had no problems with the roof. Did Dynamat and Dynaliner foam. Helped a bit except where the sunroof is. Back and doors I noticed the most in noise reduction.

    I broke the coat hanger clips, and I can't get my visor clip to fully clip in any more It's only loose,no matter how hard I press on it. I need to order new red and white clips to replace the ones I broke during the removal.

    I defintely noticed a difference. Sound's great, but holy crap it was a pita, spent the entire day on it from sun up to sun down.

    Still need to do the floor. Probably gonna do the floor lol.

    Did you have any issues with the coat hanger clips, or the visor clip?
