    Sorry to take the challenge out of it, but these should do it:
    S1 Switchback Module (pair) (diodedynamics.com)
    Hook the DRL to the running input, the turn signal to the turn input. Then tie the turn and running outputs together. Now it will be solid when the DRL is on (just the DRL though, you can also tie the running lights in, but you'll need a few diodes) and blink anytime the turn signal is on.

    Much obliged.
    I was finding threads about people doing a switch on the headlights so only assumed same would apply.
    One way or another.

    I've also got a Cross Bin 13 so I carry stuff on my DB a lot. I was sweating the install a little, but that's just me. Drilling holes and all that. Got it done without too much drama. I thought looking out the back window was going to suck, but I got used to it. You saw the photo. Some ain't going to like the look. But hey, a 4x4x8 fence post don't look good stuffed through the back window either. If you remove or flip your cab panel then there's that. With all that said if you've got the $$ I think it's worth it.

    Yep. Better put some red lens repair tape over those babies before dropping your tailgate at 'the point'. The rear cab light too! OBX'ers know what I'm talking about.

    If you need details or help, hit me up. I’d like to see those installed. I thought about them, but I already have a lot going on :rofl:

    Good use of the spikes. Somewhere I've got a railroad spike painted gold from the 1969 Golden Spike Centennial.

    I don’t know if I will ever put these to good use. They are mounted and out of the way.

    Installed Redline Tuning hood struts. Took me a long time. Way longer than most of you that posted. 70+ body isn't fast, efficient or strong. I measure 3-4 times now not like when I was young because screw ups are harder to fix at my age. Pop rivets were nearly impossible to clamp in but with the help of some places to use as leverage finally got it done. Probably used as much energy installing as I will use lifting the hood for the next few years. Happy with them so far. Now it's hard to close ha ha.

    YOU can do it. Take your shop vac put a new bag on it and remove that little silver sticker above where that clip fell into the door. Put your fresh Shop-Vac make sure your filters are clean too it'll give it a hell of a lot more suction and you will get that clip out. I think mine dropped in the same way exactly. I think it was causing a lot of rattling going on when I removed it the rattling disappeared so happy now. Good luck!

    Tire rotation, brake inspection. LBJ seems to be wet, should I worry about this now, or wait to see if it becomes a problem?

    Split boot. It’ll go dry. Replace both sides. Not that big a job. Or have someone do it. Not that expensive.

    Get OE parts from your local dealer. Take them to any reputable mechanic if you don't DIY.
