    Okay, so this is my dilemma...is the color you used called "Sand?" That seems to be the closest to my interior color, but it appears more a beige/tan color than the taupe/gray of mine. This has been my self inflicted dilemma for about the last five vehicles I've owned with this color interior...items are always available that are either too gray or too tan for my taste.

    I'm About To By diehard Platinum, I've Searched And Haven't Really Found The Info I Need. What Size Should I Get? Run A Winch And Lights, Eventually Will setup A Dual batterieS. I Don't Want One That's Huge And Crazy Expensive, I Plan On Around $200. I Don't Mind Modifying or Fabbing A Tray. Also, Is There Any difference With The marine Ones?

    That's HUGE. Why not run a small water to air then run a air/air smaller inter cooler for the water to air. Cooler air, less space used.
