    Didn't do it today, but just got around to uploading pics. I put my homelink in the blank on the left hand side of the radio! Only good or 2wd's, but another option for those not wanting to cut into the headliner. 325d44c0_81ca53eb126a79db6c1e57be974ee0520e17f72b.jpg

    Installed the white LED interior kit I bought from csjumper2003. Much brighter in the truck now. Comparison pictures don't do it justice.

    Yep, I like these quite a bit! I had actually ordered two other rims from two different dealers, neither of which ended up clearing the calipers. After the second fail my current dealer (Les Schwab) offered me these for the same price. I'm right pleased with the way things turned out!

    I ordered a rolling code Homelink off of ebay. They run 15-25 bucks. I hated having to fumble around the separate one, and the range is way better with the Homelink.

    I made a separate panel and mounted it remotely from the actual homelink box. I used a couple ideas from the threads here on TW, and this link: http://www.lieblweb.com/homelink.html

    I cut the part of the Homelink box that mates with the trim and buttons to snap it together onto the stock trim piece. I had to use two #8 screws and grind the heads flat (they sit behind the trim) to hold my board to the buttons. It took a little work, but it came together in the end. Here are some more pics:
