    1. I'll just give you a breakdown of all lighting on the truck, all Diode Dynamics aside from the roof rack lightbar which is a lasfit and front bumper which is Rough Country.

    I am an ambassador for DD but I'm also a huge fan of quality made in the USA lighting

    2. When I decided to take a pair of metal shears to an empty can after realizing it would fit over my Icon 2.0 resi quite nicely :rofl:

    @memario1214 has one right now, just gotta message him. Otherwise it's showing up on pretty much any other site that stocks Dobinsons: Mudify, Exit Offroad, TacomaBeast, etc. Dobinsons themselves doesn't take any money off themselves I guess.

    Appreciate the response! Big Diode guy myself. I have the DD ditch lights.

    Are your chase lights wired to automatically kick on in reverse, or by switch panel?

    I would rather deal with a smell for 1 week then a rusted out truck.

    I use Woolwax and Fluid Film and Woolwax does not have any smell.

    My TractorSupply stall mat for the truck bed (less expensive than Toyota official) smelled for a while in summer sun, still is noticable ... but things do not slip around. This is a truck, not a "garden party Cadillac".

    Chase lights are on the switch panel! Rear bumper reverse light SS3s are switch panel and reverse lights. So the power to the rear of the truck (12v socket for fridge, etc) is on the switch panel, I need that on in order to have the reverse lights kick the relay on. That way I could toggle them on and off but they're still automatic with the reverse lights when that aux power is on. (they're extremely offensive even in the daytime :p)

    Everytime someone pulls up behind me with blindingly bright lights I wish I had something extremely offensive in the rear to send back at them.

    Wired the gauges and ran the wires to the engine bay. No sensors hooked up yet. Still need a few pieces.

    Not sure how you did it, but the proportions are fantastic. The tires don’t look way oversized. The colors work. I’ve tried to keep my truck looking mostly stock, but you’re making me reconsider my life choices. Nice work!

    We've had a Peragon cover on our Ram for about three years now. It's been pretty solid, but we did have a roller break. I reached out to their customer support and they sent me the replacement parts and even the rivet gun to install them (they had asked if I owned one, and I didn't, so they sent it, too) all under warranty. Solid support!

    That said, we've definitely found that it is NOT waterproof. Water-resistant...maybe, but it ultimately gets a fair amount of moisture in the bed in rain. Granted, we lived the last three years in Kodiak, AK, and rain seemed neigh perpetual at times, so maybe it was more of a quantity issue.
