Yes, somewhere. They are posted in the other thread that pertains to that as well. Ill search and post if I can find them.
I think its much better with the lighter interiors. I didnt mind the wood, but wood looks best with dark interiors, I think this with the lighter works best

^ do you have the part # for all them pieces? Looks great!

This is my first honest attempt at vinyl wrap. It's nowhere near perfect, but by the end, besides it being dark out, I got way better at it. Here are some shots of when I picked my truck up and the in progress vinyl. Will give it another go possibly this weekend

I can't see it in person, but from the pictures it looks like an incredible first attempt. If you wouldn't have posted the pic with the bumper being chrome, I would've been fooled into thinking the bumper was factory painted. Also, if I were you, I would give a crack at doing the air damn. See how it comes out. I think it would look good if you can get it on there properly

How did this work out for you?

Are they any brighter?

Same bulb for both cargo and backup?

4 bulbs total?

What about the center brake light?

 

I've been thinking about this because it looks inexpensive and easy and the stock back up are not very bright.

Worked out great..REAL bright!! Yes they're the same 921 bulbs for both. I didn't think about the center brake light and honestly don't know if it's the exact same bulb. Since it has a red lens I don't know if there'd be enough difference to mess with. But I recommend the others for sure.

I used the same basic bulb except I got ones that were rated at 50W, they are very bright and much better than stock because of the white color and it is brighter than stock IMO. Also I found mine matched the color of the interior domes and the LED DRLs.

 

The 3rd brake light/center stop lamp, it is the same bulb, but I would recommend using a red bulb because if it is white then it may cause the light to look lighter than it should so it will look more pinkish than it is now.

These are "projector bulbs" (what ever that is). I guess 10W is enough for them. I don't see how anything could be that much brighter. I turned on the cargo lamp after I had installed one and left the stock one in to compare the two and the stock 921 actually looked brown next to the bright white LED. The backup lights are blinding in the dark too.

Here are a couple more in the daylight. The flaws are more obvious in these. I will look into removing the fog light deletes for my next try. I'm not so hot on doing the valence, I like the way it looks, but I do want to try doing a matte green plasti dip on the tow hook surround

Did you need load resisters to stop the missing light bub warning from displaying due to low current draw?

Do you have a link to the bulbs you used?
