    It says on their listing they don't recommend it for outdoor use. Think some silicon would solve that issue? I want to stick those back there like you guys are saying but sometimes don't drive with my tonneau cover folded down.

    I have a tonneau so not too concerned. It is removable so I can throw it in the cab if need be.

    48 with two notches cut off the top. I cut them off to fit the jack in between the wheel wells before I mounted it

    Radio Shack / Enercell brand $7 extra cig lighter wired to constant power. Has a black plug to fit in the hole but it's not shown in this pic. Drill a 1.25" hole and snap it in.

    $24.95 on eBay. GM Homelink module made for a mirror on an older GM truck.

    I just dropped the map light and grabbed power from that. It worked quite well. I'm sure you can retrofit it into the newer trucks as well.

    I'd do it to my new truck, but I rarely get the garage anymore, so I leave the opener in the center console.

    Where did you get the nut that slides in the bed rack? Maybe a simple google search, but only after I ask...

    EDIT: found these on Amazon:

    https://www.amazon.com/T-Slot-Finish-Tapped-Through-Threads/dp/B009SWGLHW

    Home Depot and Lowes weren't showing anything similiar. Would like to grab some locally if possible.

    Here's another option but I think the Amazon 5-pack with prime shipping is a better deal
