Haha yeah we got a ton of rain today really fast, my whole work parking lot was almost waste deep in water

thats killer cody! Id like to change mine out but all my extra gauges match the stockers.....

thanks man! the interior is really coming together imo! Im becoming really happy with it. think my next check im gonna focus on the interior..and leave it be for a while.

I bet your is just as easy as mine was, but thats a predicament the guages already matching!

Red would look killer tho with your other LED's

Looking sweet man.

thanks bud! I love it.

heres what I ordered, leaving the soldering and the key ring till tomorrow cuz I need a skinny torx screwdriver I gotta go buy.

*6 Wled-xHP5-PC: LED T10 wedge base bulb w/ twist lock socket (I ****** up, should have got 7, #6 and #7 would be for the turn signal arrows, may order that one more later on)
*7 3mm LEDs (climate control/window switches)
*1 74-xHP3 wedge base led bulb (keyring)

You do realize that by saying this your gunna "finish" than see something you want to do in the interior and its going to drive you insane until you do it right? Than the process will just repeat itself over and over...its the curse of the modder ....there will be times you'll wish you never started nodding your truck ...but than you'll look at your truck and realize its a damnable good looking rig that's stands out and you got something to be proud of. Which is something non modders never get to realize. Lol

But the guages look sweet man. And that little bezel....did they have anything besides solid Colors? Such as woodgrain that might match my Laramie woodgrain panels?

thanks for the compliments bro, much appreciated.

well I meant done for the summer time I go to school in the fall and spring and work the summer and winter, so I try to get a somewhat equal exterior : interior : performance ratio each
time

tell me about never being done..haha iv been modding this **** since I
got her almost 3 years ago. it's my hobby haha I love it.

as for different colors, I think they only had brushed aluminum, red, and blue anodized.

I'm sure there are companies out there tho that have wood grain, iv seen a few while surfing the net at night.

well, i can always modify the modification. although an idea came to me last night that might end up leading to me stripping out all the wood grain when i redo my interior...kinda liked the vision i got last night. but i am not planning on stripping my interior just yet...not till i have a solid idea going that i have settled on.

Was that piece a decently solid piece of plastic? or something really flimsy?

 

[the codes]

it was actually aluminum, pretty sturdy

 

[loki223]

Got a link to where you got it? i think i could use one for my future plans....something sturdy like that i can definitely customize it and do something even more unique, even if its just repainting it to match the accents i end up doing in my truck. Got a daylight pic with that piece all the way in the dash?

 

[the codes]

I'll get ya a picture once I get everything put back together.

*update*

ran into a snag while doing the ac/controls, I needed resistors so I blew two bulbs, got the right ones on the way! will resume the install when they get here. big thanks to Luke (werm) for trouble shooting with me and getting me in the right direction. thanks alot man.

got the key light in no problem, night pics later.

gonna get to the door switches later today.

considering doing some plasti dipping but it is awfully cloudy outside and don't wanna get rained on half way through..

here's a few pics

pics of climate controls fail lol had no idea I needed resistors. lesson learned.

Nice, looking forward to see them.

If you don't mind me asking, Where did you get the power from for the led floor lights? Did you tap into a fuse or a wire?

and here i am, looking at doing some of the same stuff you just posted thinking they were the small things. lol.

Part of me hates seeing you getting all these packages knowing i can't afford to be buying things atm, but the other part knows you'll be the one thats jealous in a couple months when i have the cash flow and your stuck in school not being able to afford what i am getting. lol

[DJ_13]

That's what I was thinking of doing. I've got the led strips and a rocker switch already, I just gotta put them in. One of my friends tapped into the fuse for his but I don't know if I like that setup
