    Yeah, actually I got the frame inspected last week, it's rusty but solid.

    Good deal, We dont have rust, So the only rust I see is when the damn truck brakes in half and it gets plastered on fb and ig.

    Yeah. I took it in for the recall but because the previous owner didn't get it fixed I'm Sol. Luckily, like I said, it's fine for now.

    My dash lights look similar and I think its the bulbs...i used to knock on the panel and some would illuminate but i dont bother anymore.

    Are you sure defrost isnt on? BC that would explain why it blows as you describe.

    ...we'll get there.
    It's the bulbs. It's not that hard to replace them (I just did all of them while I was in there). Maybe 2 hours max

    What did you replace the bulbs with, OEM or LED aftermarket? If you used LED's, how is the light, smooth as OEN or harsh as LED's can be?

    My cruise control light is out back lighted if I go in to change that I will replace all the back lights.
