    Ok cool, is there much above the bar? Most 40" curved are dual row so I might go that route.

    are the outside lights more amber than yellow? i assume they are flood pattern and the white is spot. can you turn on just the white or amber or are they both on. looks nice though.

    You are correct. The yellow outside lights are the floods. Inside white are all spot. They all come on at once

    Where are you mounting your light switches? There isn't really a good spot besides in the center console by the 115 volt button but it's a pain to reach. I'm also thinking in the spot to the left of the steering wheel where the RSCA button would be.

    Mine has a rsca button so I could go there. I would totally go there if u can. I went down in the blanks on the center console like u said. Yeah its a little pita to hit, but I'm not using the light bar everyday... just aimed mine down, much better:)

    Not a bad idea. For me I'm gonna mostly use mine in the wonter, probably woth just the running lights on so I can see through the snow. High beams would ruin that

    Yeah I plan on doing that as well.

    Gotcha, need to see if the dealership can order me a stock switch. Thanks for the help and the truck looks awesome.

    Good plan. I'll probably change my switch someday to something cleaner but for now it works

    Shit! I got the same color as you. WTH luck is that.

    Oh well, not like when you buy used you get to choose the color. I tried for a Sunfire but it sold after 4 hours on the lot. I picked this one up before the keys even went in the system, they move way fast.

    Great looking truck you have. I dig the light bar and wanna put one in my '06 now.

    Sorry if this was asked or answered and I missed it. How do you like your ultra gauge? I've been looking into getting one just to have all the extra gauges and especially the code reader.

    Thanks man! Yeah the light bar helps a ton when towing the sleds back through the mtns home.

    I I've the ultra gauge. Does so much and is extremely affordable

    Yeah I could imagine that. I like to have the added light especially for when I go camping and have to drive out at night or such, the roads are old trails most of the time and they are miles from anywhere so extra light is always nice.

    Ive heard good reviews on it and I like that it has multiple interfaces and clusters you can use, and the monitor I like better than a scan gauge. Know of a place to get a really good deal? I know on their site they are selling it for $70 for the em plus. What model do you have again?

    I went with the slightly nicer model. I believe I paid 90 or so, with a windshield mount. I bought it mainly to watch temps. I like to know where coolant temp and trans temp is when towing

    What's the main difference between the two? I really want it for the code reader and clearer, and for trans temp. I'm taking over a family business in July and will be getting a enclosed 5x10 and would like to monitor the temps overall better.

    Can you pm me an email, I can give you a run down of what I was having them put on and you can give me your input and if you think you can do it cheaper (with the same quality components) , I will go with you.

    Well the tundra sat for a while while I painted the hood and rear bumper. Got my new rear bumper on and light installed and wired! Came out great. #nomorechrome

    Me as well... it was a hell of a project. Centering those holes was a bit*h on a curved bumper... not to mention it was a brand new oe part. Then I learned how to spray with a real spray gun. Came out pretty freakin good!
