LED running board lights I found on ebay. They work awesome.

Is that your truck in the ebay listing? Also, what did you tie into for power?

Awesome buddy! Glad u got the tonno!

How much was ghe bedrug? And where did u get it?

I got the bedrug off of Amazon for $320 shipped, and it's the official OEM version with the big bow tie Logo on the panel by the cab/bulkhead. Best mod ever. It is incredible. I sat in there and listened to tunes with some beers last night. It's so comfortable AND fully functional. Best part is the padding and it makes the truck bed perfectly flat.

Here's the bedrug link - this is for the 5'8" box:

Genuine GM Accessories 22892013 Bed Rug https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00FMUZ15W/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_tOqgwbBCN8C8P

I have a question for you on the tonnopro lo roll. The seal at the tailgate - do you leave that little flap/water seal folded/squeezed against the tailgate? Or do you pull it up on top? I love the cover but feel like that deal would work best on top of the tailgate, but I find I have to pull it up on top every time I shut it or it gets squeezed in there and doesn't seem like it will keep water out that way.

Nice man. Ima have to look into the bedrug for sure. As far as the tonno seal goes, yes it should be adjusted where the flap should sit atop the tailgate. I also was fighting the seal every time i opened and closed the tailgate until i had a "duh" moment. Next time u open the tailgate, release the latch on the cover and roll it back, one roll. Then close tailgate and roll the tonno closed till it snaps after closing tailgate. It will the sit on top of the tailgate easily.

Ahhh that does seem like an easier solution. Still not perfect but will do. Thanks man. You've been a huge help. If you have any questions about the bedrug let me know. I can't say enough good things about it. Install isn't too bad either and it came out looking pretty factory.

Well thanks to that fun storm that came thru last night I lost my headlights. Everything else is functional except for lows and highs. Looks like its time to go buy another hid kit.

What do you mean you "lost your headlights"? Can you elaborate? What kit did you have, wiring harness, etc? Where did it fail? This is exactly why I am hesitant to pull the trigger. Don't want to lose my headlights, especially in a storm.

Thanks!

Installed the HC Dash, Front camera , new Wheels and tires.

What did MVI charge you for that? The lack of pricing on the net leads me to believe the price may be different for everyone. Does MVI programming trigger the camera to come on automatically when the front crash indicators are triggered? Or is this a simple video in where you have to switch the source manually if you want to see what's in front? If that's the case, then it is Strange that the video turns off at any speed.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Any more info on that led bar looks like db link correct me if I'm wrong looks f bright.

Update : nvm just saw its a cree 32 looks good btw

yeah it's a cree led light bar off ebay. and it is pretty bright! for 60 bucks im impressed. the real test is time though. we will see how it holds up.

on another note, this thing is a tight fit with the grill on. the plastic grille slat is literally touching the light bar. if the light bar was 1/16" further out it would not fit unless it was a curved light bar.

I agree not perfect, but for a soft budget cover it really stays dry with this system. Also i tried this morning, and realized you dont even have to roll it back. Just open tailgate, disengage latch, close tail gate, the push down to relatch. Its pretty fluid that way.

I like the bedrug idea, although i do have a spray-in. Does the bedrug have adhesive to hild it in place? If so, im not sure how well it would work with that...

They wouldnt turn on. They came back on this morning on the way home so idk what happened to cause the fail. This is the only issue I have had with them since I installed them. I have the DDM 55w kit with the wiring harness.

Edit: Tried them again last night and they are dead again. Pulled the whole kit out of the truck and put the stockers back in until the new stuff arrives. On both of the hid bulbs there was some corrosion on the middle of the bulbs all the way around. I have never seen that before so who knows.

Picked up a protecta bed mat today at agri supply. Had been considering it even tho I have linex....but wasn't sure. Had been looking at dee zee....was in agri supply for something unrelated and saw them. A quick Google search says they are the same as dee zee. Brought it home.$74.99 and instant gratification.

Yeah, I noticed that being in and out of there today a few times. Works for me.

Not sure about the bedrug over spray. It uses 3M heavy duty adhesive Velcro tape to hold it down so that might not stick. They do make just the bottom piece though

Ditched the 305/55 idea and went with 305/50. That's a one inch difference and it makes a big difference. I'm going to finish it up tomorrow, but here's what she's looking like right now. 20x12's on 305/50r20 Toyo AT2's 2.5" Level.

& a comparison of the new setup vs stock with 2" spacers

What made you choose the 305-50-20 over the 305-55-20? I am assuming in your case bc of the wide wheels and negative offset to reduce rubbing.

I am looking at the 305-50-20 toyo or the 305-55-20XL Nitto Terra Grappler G2, but i only have 20x9 0 offset wheels.
