    Under hood lights. Only for utilitarian purpose. I've only used them once.

    Buttons for garage door openers and footwell lights. Buttons are located in the blank next to the dome light switch on the interior roof. Footwell light switch is dual function. The left foot does the driver side, the right foot does passenger side.

    Now that you've had that Lamin-X on the fog lights for 3/4 of a year, and gone through some winter weather, how is it holding up?
    Do you still like it/recommend it.

    Yep, still looks like new. No fading, peeling or bubbles. I'm getting a set of ambers for my motorcycle fog lights too.

    The Samsung Fit USB (in dash) has approximately 200 CDs on it.
    And yes I have an old school GPS. I do use google maps when I need to, but this always shows the speed limit, notifies me when red light cameras are coming up, etc.
    So I keep it there. Always on when the truck is running.

    One thing did just today was enlarge the three drain holes in the bed up near the cab. They were 1/4 inch and get clogged easily. I drilled them out to 1/2 inch and added two more. You have to careful not to run the bit too far down on the drivers side cause of the gas tank is about 2 inches away from the bed.

    i like that yours does not have a big sign on it that says "steal me" like mine does. Mine is garmin and mounted
    on top of the dash with a mounting system. i have to remove it when not using it, for safety. i originally tried
    to mount it where you have it and found it to be dangerous to look down that far while driving. had a couple close calls.
    due to mount/remove hassle i use it only when i don't know where i am. it is a good point about red light cams and speed limit warnings and traffic alerts etc. if it was on all the time.

    $29.99 Costco wetsuit seat covers! Not an exact fit but good enough for me. I was going to get the Rough Country ones but this way I’ll save some money for better mods. I’m happy with them.

    I saw where some folks put some covers on the multimedia/radio knobs to make them larger. Like the volume etc. where to do you get something like that. Those knobs are to small !!!
