    Thanks but I’m NOT taking any credit, we all share what works and what issues we had so the next guy will have a better experience. The only credit for mods I will take is for getting scratches for not being careful....hehe

    Installed some foot comfort: custom diamond leather mats. Fits like a glove and attaches with clips, velcro

    Forgot what thread someone asked me about overlays..any ways found some of my extra overlays as back up since those are the most used areas in my interior. Each piece is custom fit for a specific area and only need to clean then apply addesion promoter and peal of 3M sticker and make sure you place it on correct cuz they stick hard

    Before and after on the AVS low profile window visor. Did not like how it overlapped I to the pillars, so it trimmed now it’s what I was looking for: a low profile visor that is NOT inchannel as it makes the window motor work hard and NOT attached on the outside and lacking arodinamics.

    Disclaimer: I didn't read the whole thread yet, but you installed your console organizer upside down. The short end is suppose to go where the 12v port is located. Maybe someone already mentioned it. :notsure:

    Recently installed my custom leather floor mats. My OCD kicked in and not happy with the fit and lack of Velcro straps to secure some key points.....took them off and cut and trimmed the rear under seat as I have an ESP metal storage and needed to be able to open and close my covers, added Velcro to key points to secure them properly, not that they didn’t do a good job. But I’m a perfectionist and saw some flaws and fixed them with my sewing skills learned from my Military days.

    After 2 years of abusing my truck bed, finally decided to go to this shop which has a lifetime warranty. Just come back each year for inspection and touch up any areas needing re-coating. Looks brand new again

    Upgraded my reverse LED bulbs from GTR to SuperB. The left is SuperB. Easy to instal just make sure the side LEDs are facing right and left to reflect of the reflectors. The SuperB’s are (3x) brighter than EOM and (2x) the GTR.

    YAKIMA R&D did an awesome job with their OverHaul HD truck bed rack system. Bars are heavy duty aluminum black powder coated,800#static load, 500# pavement load and 300# off-road load, base system is more secure and sturdy, side rail bar that connects the two racks are an upgrade. So many accessories to choice from. Bonus is one key Locks the roof rack, HD base plate and tie down locking strap(8) locks total. Only issue was my 68” cross bars are on back order so installed everything except the cross bars and ladder roller.
    Anyone wanna buy my Thule roof rack system. Already sold my truck bed racks

    Credit to “NAFlash” for the idea. Put the TRD metal emblem on the rear of my Dual TRD exhaust. Really makes the exhaust tips “pop”

    Diode Dynamic LED hood kit. Came with 4 LED strips, connectors, wires, pin switch, fuse & quick ties. Ran wires through hood on right side them trimmed excess wires and connected and finished with looms for cleaner professional look. Very bright 6k LEDs. Will take pics in PM on next post

    Finally after my lost/missing order, (FedEx) investigation, reorder, then back order of cross over bars....(2) months of waiting, got my 68” cross over bars and installed with sliding roller. Must say Yakima set the bar high. Now trying to sell my Thule systems

    AMP Research driver side rear step bumper. Solid pieces. After instal only loosing the thin bracket that secures the bottom bumper, but the rear step unit makes it even stronger. Simple instal just make sure you torque to recommended pound.

    Installed “GoRhino” front bull bar” 45 minutes due to having to attach front License plate(work parking lot reads our plates to get in & out of parking structure). Now my front matches my rear “GoRhino” step bar hitch.
