    im not talking about lift kits, brush gaurds, and tires
    but i am talking about customisations that you have done to make your truck YOURS!!!

    and also tell how you did it or what its made of
    and post pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(or u didnt do it)

    second gens are welcome too

    what i have done
    1. customised my cb to fit perfectly under my radio (made it out of a piece of plexiglass and a 2x4 and a piece of plywood i had laying around)
    2. shift concle thing (cut out the old leather boot and insalled black carpet around black boots that were under the leather boots)
    3. added a 5 speed shift knob from a 1978 toyota pickup (just to be diffrent)

    The beeping when the key was in the ignition and door was open would drive me crazy.

    When i wanted to listen to the radio when drying my truck after a car wash i would have to listen to the beep beep beep.

    I put a switch in for the door switch. I can switch the door switch off when i want to turn the beep off.
