I added a "Built not Bought" decal on the back window. I'm not really one for a bunch of decals on the rear window, but I really liked this one:

I like that a lot. I can't remember how many times I've been asked where I bought my truck. Lol working on your own stuff is a lost art now a days.

Yesterday, my Lund bed step came in. Was kinda tough to install because of my body lift. I had to adjust the exhaust tips just right to make everything fit. I didn't want to send it back because I'm going to really use this thing. Let me know what you guys think:

I got mine from Opt7's EBay page. I didn't necessarily get a "deal" on them but their pricing was good. I don't have canbus as I have LED lighting.

I'm not fully understanding your question but if you're asking what gauge wire I used to wire up my reverse LED light bars, then I used 14 gauge wire.

Today, I installed my 3157 Switchback LED's from RetroShop. I couldn't be any happier with how they turned out. Everything matches completely now as far as all LED lighting as well as all of it being white LED. And let me just give a shout out to Jeremy for his quick responses via e-mail as well as answering his phone when I had a quick question today. AWESOME customer service! :D Here's a couple of pics and a YouTube link to see them in action:
