    A few minor things...
    Do you happen to know the dimension (center to center) of the holes you mounted that to? I have a plate I'm going to mount but don't know the dimensions. It's cold as f*** here and I'd rather not fumble about outside if I don't have to!

    Thanks!

    Installed my bed lights (finally). Instead of tie it into the door lights, I found this magnetic switch on sale at O'Reillys auto parts store. So when I open the tailgate, the lights automatically come on! It does have a small override switch in case I want to keep the lights off while the tailgate is open.


    I have the lights directly connected to the battery (with inline fuse) so that they turn on whenever I need them to.

    Also added 5k HID lights into the low beams. Matches the LED DRL's very nicely. Not bad for $40

    I left the fog lights at OEM for now. I don't like the really yellow fog lights everyone else seems to be buying lately, but I do like the 4300k look for the fogs. Eventually I will get LEDs for the fogs (cause I have LED's everywhere else besides the low & high beams).


    Those pics are in bright daylight, I just darkened the photos so that the headlights were the focus of the pics

    My tweeter on the passenger side (or the surround on it) has been rattling for a while now, has anyone else experienced this?

    Replaced my VanCulture Faux Pro Grille with an OEM Pro Grille today. Faux looked nice but found a good deal on a gently used OEM.

    You wouldn't replace w/ OEM and paid the extra $ I wouldn't think if the faux one was up to snuff, I'd think? Aside from buying OEM for a decent price vs. knock-off what differences in quality do you see between the 2 since you've now had both?

    Yeah it's a thing. There's a thread about it. Some people have broken off toothpicks into the edge of it to stop it from rattling.

    I didn't tell me wife about them since she doesn't care and she's not the type that notices much when it comes to vehicles. So it was funny that first night night we drove with them and she asked "why do the lights look so bright?" LOL YES

    Couldn't strop grinning that night. :bananadance:

    Just added these orange rubber rings. They don't match the Inferno Orange color, but it still works for me. :D


    I bought the 23mm diameter based off what others have said worked, but mine were just a tad too big and I needed to add some cut strips of electrical tape around the knobs before slipping the rings on. So go with

    Oh yeah, also did the 10 minute AC drain mod...definitely needed here in Hawaii

    the method l used and has worked perfectly is to punch/push in on the A pillar really hard and see if you hear a small click. Worked for me.... no noise.
