    Where the bed lights stock in the shell or did you make them? The cabin light in my snugtop was broken when I bought it and I have been looking for a cheap solution.

    Did the turtle wax black box to the whole truck. Took a lot of time and found that the detailed spray worked best on the final wipe down. It's not gooey like others have mentioned and really hid or faded a lot of light scratches. I'm very happy with the results. Buy a few micro fiber towels from harbor freight. The first step is like doing the whole truck with black dyed scratch 2O.

    There was a cheapie dome light there when I bought it. I replaced it with some cheapie fog lights. I really didn't do a great job installing them. I just bolted them on where the single dome was and did a "plug and play" with the wires. Wiring I just nutted in place to make removal easy.

    Simple install, works well for me.:D
