    Bunch of stuff bolted on, some cool, some not
    Alright, update time, yes! They were not installed properly (go me!). I loosened them up and realized I had gone up over the lip of the bumper when fitting them and tightened it down like that. It was a long install, basically because I was afraid of breaking things so I went very slowly and thus was pretty done by the end. Anyway, long story longer, I've adjusted the fit and it is MUCH better now, chalk it up to user error.

    Hahaha. Thank you for the effort anyways man, I appreciate it, and I’m right there with you. Still lookin for a picture of that finicky connector. I wish the wiring and wire protection was a bit more heavy duty on those tiny connectors.

    Yea they are pretty thin. Hopefully someone will get a picture for you. Good luck with the repair. Sounds just like something that would happen to me if I tried to replace the plugs myself.

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    I have Rigid D series pros in selective amber, hyper spots. Great output and enough power to handle some pretty thick fog.

    Is that panel as flexible as it looks? I’m considering solar solutions for my eventual soft topper.

    yeah it's a generic 100w monocrystalline flex panel. I wouldn't use it on a soft-topper.

    I haven’t had a time yet where I needed to try them out. I look forward to hearing responses from real world experience as well.
    I wouldn’t hesitate to try them out when the moment arises though.

    I got my 2nd KTJO "one click" window switch installed on rear passenger side door. It was another 5 minute install.

    Only real tool you need is a plastic trim removal tool:

    And I also put a second string of raptor lights on the lower half of the grille with @runnin4tacos DRL connector. It looks "ok," but not really happy with their placement. Tried in about all the slots I could and these 4 were about the only that would work.

    Installed back rack and window tint on the back windows. Also cleaned up a couple of rusty brackets in the engine bay.

    They could, but from what I read here they leave an adhesive residue behind to be removed. Probably not hard to do at all. This method was just my preference.

    Drivers side sucks, I ordered intake gaskets and pulled the upper intake manifold off. 6 extra bolts but way easier than dealing with tight spaces and sharp plastics lol
