Whats the bulb numbers for the overhead lights? 194?

The map lights are 194's, the dome light has 3 211 festoons

I usually wait until they have a 50% off sale

I don't think we have any LED vendors on here so hopefully no one minds the links.

Well if you decide to get rid of some stuff off the extended cab let me know. I would.love to have those mirrors.

I'll let you know :hug:

Trying to sell it all together.... parting out a truck sucks and makes me sad :rofl:

Thanks i'll check em out, I ordered a set from china off ebay for $1.80 shipped so i'm going to see if they're worth a crap, although my expectations aren't very high

I tried the cheaper ones straight from China but the light output isn't nearly as good. You might have a different experience though.

Clean truck :)

Took the bumper lower valence off to get repainted and have a couple holes filled, had some scratches on it and I'm raising the bumper up 2 1/4" as well.

It's going to stay like that until I get the lift put on. I ordered Cognito UCA's on Monday because I forgot I needed them. Shouldn't stop me from getting a majority of the lift on though.

That is an awesome truck :thumb: Surely it was high though, but clean as hell none the less. I personally don't like those bumpers raised one bit, but to each his own, congrats on the new one :D

Thanks... Personally I like it.... then the bumper doesn't hang down lower than the rest of the truck and I gain 2 1/2" vertical so I won't have to trim near as much.

What's all done to it exactly and how many miles?

Before when I said the truck was sold I was only 80% sure... now I'm 95% sure its sold lol. No need to go into details now but shoot me a PM if you'd like.

Update. Lift is on, should have painted plastics back on Tuesday. Also put Esky handles on. :D

Also, took the running boards off... will be replaced with AMPs as soon as I get sick of vaulting into the drivers seat.

Trucks looking good! tailpipe looks like a drinking straw, what exhaust setup you going to use?

MBRP 5" with a 4" frontpipe... All Season EGR delete and All Season SS downpipe then finish it off with some 6" Stainless tip

I like the quiet for now though :roflmao:

1. Converted the DRLs to turns today
2. Wired up my front footwell LED's
3. Modified stock signal relay to stop hyperflash

Used 2 6" 5k led strips per side in the front, was just going to use one but liked this better. I need to order more for the rear now.

I always wrap the base of the bulb and the top of the socket once around with electricians tape so it holds the switchback in place... Mine always sagged and stop working the way they should and this solved that. Plus it hides the socket color when installed.

All wrapped back up

Modifying the blinker module instead of using load resistors or buying the $50 LED module. Doing this fixes the "burn out bulb" hyperflash caused by the low resistance of LEDS

Remove 2 7mm screws from bottom of panel.

I "rock" the blinker module back and forth to get it out or it can be a pain

Apart: I use the paint can opener in the picture to open the module up... its easier than a screwdriver.

The truck is looking great, as expected. Where did you get your LED footwell lights. I was looking at some on the superbrightled websight, and it was going to be almost $200 to get enough to do everything I wanted to do.
