    @Kuntrykid mines an 06 so I can't say if your wiring is gonna be the same but I can take a picture of the pin I had to ground. If you have a multimeter all you need to do is verify the pins on your clockspring.

    The cutouts in your bed mat are a great idea for the D-rings. Great job on everything. Now have some beer an relax if possible.

    @Kuntrykid
    This is the ground wire coming from the black steering wheel controls
    And this is the pin it corresponds to on the column side of the clockspring. It most likely is the same on yours but I would verify with a multimeter.

    After recently adding a lift and new wheels and tires, I've noticed mud/snow stuck to the front of the rear wheel wells. Decided to ditch the OEM flaps and try these out, it's a flap and flare in one. I don't want to go full old man on the flare part, but I'm going to try to get them out there for some added protection. As soon as this arctic weather breaks I'll get them on and get some pics after install.
