How are those Aires rear liners? Price? They look really nice and appear to have great coverage and containment. I have Huskys for the front but am looking for something for the rear. Are they full coverage to the back?

The full set was over $200. I'm sorry I don't remember the exact amount.

 

I really like them. They provide full coverage and stay in place really well. I like that they don't have the deep grooves to hold mud and dirt and make it difficult to clean.

I added 7" LED bars in place of my fogs...love them!

Thanks!! Had the lights for a bit just wanted to build the right bracket so it fit snug and was semi flush. Now if I can only fab something up like your lights!!

That looks awesome! How did you get them in place of the fogs?

I took the entire front end apart, removed the bumper, and removed the buckets that hold the factory fog assembly...just the light itself. I then put everything back on the truck. I built a bracket to hold the led bar from the top on the drivers side and bottom on the passenger side (to account for the way the wires ran)

Drilled a little hole in the bucket to fit the bracket in and bolted it in. I'll have to take some pics the next time I have my front end apart. Hopefully when I'm installing my 7-9" McGaughys lift ;-)

dipped my bumpers.

Wow, that looks really good...Nice work man, i really like what you've done to your truck.

Lights look Sweet, can you share the info where you got them and how you mounted / powered them, I would definitely like to do this to mine! Now have the Bowtie wrapped white!!

came black from factory

i'm not a big fan of Chrome so i bought a WT (because budget and black things)

also i love modifying and customizing my things so options are selfmade :)

if i was richer i would buy a higher class and it would come all black too but full options:)

The led-8 DRL is here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-PHILIPS-DRL-LED-DAYLIGHT8-DAYTIME-RUNNING-LIGHTS-12-VOLT-1-PAIR-DAYLIGHT-8-/301080184142?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4619c7054e&vxp=mtr

Mounting is super easy.. Power is connect to Battery .Come with 3 wires + - and parking light wire, but it's control by it own control box so you don't have to worry about it being on all the time. It's on off with the ignition. Also you need to tap 1 wire to the parking light so it will dim when the parking lights is turn on... when the parking lights is off, the Led will go back to the super bright mode as you can see in those pictures..

Do your oem drl's still come on then or did this bypass that feature?

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
