    I've been flashed 3 times in 6 months. Then I just flash my brights and laugh out loud.

    Why? I don't understand the thinking behind this. how loud will you laugh when you do that and cause an accident? I have been blinded and almost ran off the road, its not fun.

    Yeah I hear you on that. I haven't been flashed at by oncoming cars yet. I think if I do I'll end up aiming them down.

    I've driven past many vehicles with blinding LED high beams that forget they have them on even when I flash my brights at them. I still maintain.

    Not all eyes are the same. But do as you need, I know how the lights have blinded me and don't see the need to do this to others.

    Did a couple little things to the truck this weekend.

    Changed my Orange Trim on the dash to the Graphite that comes in the grey interior

    Before
    FullSizeRender%2011_zpsobw1n8lk_9590e27cfa212bb124a007f36238496c489f5ad2.jpg

    After
    IMG_7272_zpso7wfhboh_702e87687644bde75452463c237d35d33b09713e.jpg

    Added Weathertech floor mats front and rear along with a OEM bed mat

    IMG_7276_zps8lb4h6i8_0ccbe15708400b08e4a92c1c1f0d9ce34eb9b8c1.jpg

    Added LED's to all my interior lights, reverse lights and license plate lights looks great!

    IMG_7275_zps6lm9fh15_4653748e714744882028c70c1a55795f0885a56c.jpg

    Removed the Sport lower bumper valance and I gotta say I like it much better without it. The truck looks so much meaner

    IMG_7277_zpsltbzsopy_54d8ea13187d5a01e66891787d740fd00ea1c9c4.jpg

    Also mounted one of my Duratracs to my spare tire. Its a crappy photo so I apologize but next to it is a stock wheel and tire so you can see the added difference. I ordered TRD Pro wheels but they didn't come yet. The tires I'm using are Goodyear Duratrac 265/70/17.

    More to come!

    Sure no problem!

    Rear Dome light
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0142WSPA8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Front Map Lights
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MAG6RMM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    As for the install dont waste your time removing the lenses on the map lights. The entire assembly is held in by clips not a single screw. Its a bit tough so dont feel like you are going to break it.

    For the rear, the lease has 1 clips on each corner holding it in. From the back take a very thin flat head screw driver ( Like one used on eye glasses) and pop the left then right tabs free from the housing. The lease should just fall out.

    Let me know if you need help.
