    And don't drop the clay. And if you do, throw it away.

    Fixed my right retrofit HID projector so it shines level now. Huge pain. Tried to wire in the LED angel eyes to my DRL's. Now I don't have DRL's. Gonna see a guy about fixing that on monday.

    A few things
    Yeah but its too high to strap stuff down a lot of times. I'll get a lot more use out these then the ones up top.

    Ebay. I think it was $23 for both shipped. I like these better then the Dodge rings because they aren't loose and wont rattle and they just seem to be a little more heavy duty compared to them. The other ones probably work fine though.

    For you guys that are using the clay bar you might want to look into the speedy prep towel. Does the same job if not better, and in a fraction of the time.

    Did the XM "stealth" antenna mod. I've never liked the magnetic antenna stuck on the roof, so my Old antenna was mounted on dash. Worked OK, but would lose signal frequently around trucks. New antenna is mounted under the bed rail near the tailgate. Vast improvement in signal strength.

    I added a bolt once...
    I received my OEM roof rack - damaged, refused shipment from Fedex

    I received my Extang Solid Fold Tonneau cover - punctured through the box and through the aluminum, refused shipment from Fedex

    Nice work Fedex, continue to have sex with my shipments and pay the man for damage...The tonneau was actually "dropped off at my garage and the guy split"...guess what, signature required asshat..took back to the local Fedex store and said...here ya go, didn't sign for it.

    Fedex sucks;)
