    This is so rad. I want to get a Decked system and this makes me want one even more. Do you dislike the amount of bed space you lost though?

    Got rid of the horrible Miami vice red/black “4x4” stickers on the bed. Miserable undertaking.

    86'ed the Boost mirror switch for an OEM style going off of @RainMan_PNW 's awesome detailed write-up. I went a different route as my mirrors weren't wired for OEM power fold so I tied into the provided switch harness. Anyway, so much nicer than the ugly switch Boost provided (which didn't fit and costs $35 + s&h juuuust in case you break it :facepalm:).

    Not at all, the storage outweighs what I lost in bed space.

    It will look better once you get the emblem on it. By the way, since that is a TSS grille, the emblem is $200

    It all depends how you use your bed. I have it in my work truck and think it would be better with a simple plywood custom box and not the drawers - but I have 4' long equipment so it's easy to reach without sliding drawers. If I put one in my personal truck in place of a tonneau cover I'm sure it wouldn't bug me the little bed space you lose. You can still put a quad on top so it's only issue would be the lower amount of bed sides you have for things like fridges or garbage bins.

    So... got them installed. I'm noticing my lights aren't as bright as yours. Actually very dim. I have morimoto headlights and thought I read something a while back about having aftermarket headlights and the taillights would dim but I can't find anything concrete. This is the turn signal light... very different than yours. Anyone have any clues?

    Both sides the same? Headlights should not affect the brightness of tail lights.

    Yes, both the same. I'll post more pics up in a little while, but when I turn the lights on you can barely see any red

    I'm thinking a battery draw issue?

    Let the kids play in the back yard and pulled the truck back there so I could double duty on kid watching and dash tear down, kids slowed everything down but overall wasn’t to bad when all said and done just lots of dismantling.

    Installed, black radio trim, black a/c vents, ajt climate knobs, 4wd knob, radio knobs, and start trim, in my shopping I thought I ordered the logo overlay I guess I didn’t so need to do that and the interior is a wrap at this point.

    I found the steering wheel emblem overlay on Amazon. I used SEM trim black on my interior when I did mine and added a touch of color under the radio. Overlook the dust lol.

    Yeah my dumb ass was hoping i could just move mine over.....:annoyed:

    Are there any aftermarket options? Or maybe I'll have to retro fit the one i have. Its the same size just wrong fitment options.

    Yeah the emblem is different for the 18 and up due to the TSS. I don't know of anything aftermarket, but I thought someone on here had a solution for a non-TSS truck. Your emblem might be smaller as well...I'm not positive though. If I find that post I'll link it.

    They offer the Luxx tail lights with clear lens and smoked lens, so that can make a big difference. But I also think the AlphaRex lights aren’t that bright in general. Or it could just be different lighting/cloudy weather in the pics

    Made some ax and shovel mounts for my Leitner rack. Modified stage light clamps with plastic inserts I made on my CNC and swapped the knob for a security nut. Will make a knob handle for the security nut key soon.
