Yes, it's pretty simple and straight forward once you crawl under it and look. I did the same thing - painted the chrome black. There are clips all the way around. I used a trim tool to get it started and it went pretty smooth after that. I also had to drill out two rivets that were holding the license plate frame on and used small bolts to put it back on.

I found a pair of tail lights on eBay. They're pretty rare, but if you keep checking they'll pop up every once in awhile.

Is there really an issue with tire chain/cable use with these trucks? Or is it more of GM passing the liability off? Obviously if a chain or cable breaks it could wreak havoc, but if it's used properly I don't see why there would be an issue... I'm of the opinion of not needing them, but unfortunately my state requires all vehicles (AWD and 4WD included) to have chains and use them when advised.

I got this and have been very happy with it: NEW 2019 Rugged Geek RG1000 INTELLIBOOST 1000A Portable Auto Jump Starter and Power Supply with LCD Display. USB Laptop Charging. Emergency Auto Jump Box for Cars, Trucks, SUVs, and Motorbikes (Currently has a $20 off coupon on Amazon)

Very nice ride!! Both mirrors look great on it, but I like the non-towing ones better. And definitely the chrome cap!

I was deciding between the same two and ended up going with the Coopers based on price, good feedback from family members that run them, more load range options, and being USA-made. So far I have no complaints.

Exactly. Tactile, physical buttons and knobs really win. Not as fancy or pretty, but allow for safer driving and less distraction.

Yup. x2

The straight body line make all the difference in the 1st pic - MUCH better than the curve down through the front quarter panel/driver's door. Moving the side mirror off the door panel looks better too. Nicely done.

Very nicely done! Looks like it came OEM with the truck.

Do you know what speakers he went with?

I’ve been using Vled resistors with no problems. Maybe give them a shot... They are much more robust and barely even heat up.

It’s really as easy as popping the old one off and bolting in the new one with the supplied bolts. Make sure the bottom is aligned correctly with the dash speaker cover first and the top will fall into place.

Have to agree with your first point. I only made it a minute through.

Looks like a minivan with a bed to me...
