What Have You Done With Your T1 Today ?????

I find buying new wheels after they've been stolen "more trouble than it's worth" all the time!  [emoji23]

Eh, wheel locks don’t stop wheel theft. They only slow it down and make the thief work a smidge harder.

Some wheel locks maybe, but they aren't getting mine off before they feel hot lead in their ass.

The good tire thieves and rings have all the tools anyway.  We've had rounds of them in my area, they'll hit a lot and 10 trucks have been stripped overnight.    All four wheels.   Two years ago actually caught one of the groups!!

Good! That gives my dog more time to alert me.

Are you referring to the lightbar?  if so, runs back to headache rack along and down the leg to the bed, then between the bed and cab in thru the rear window, bottom corner   This keeps water from dribbling / running along the wire into the cab...  Window still closes tight

How do you like that tonneau? I just ordered one and am waiting for it to come in. 

I like it. I don’t have much to compare it to since this is my first truck in a while. I had one small issue where the clip for the hold down strap (used on the second to last flip) broke in the first few weeks. It was easy and cheap to replace but I was disappointed it broke so quickly. I just ordered a replacement strap kit from BakFlip. I think is was only $2. Went with the whole kit because I couldn’t find the right sized clip at the hardware store. That and it’s quicker to just unscrew the entire strap rather than finagle that clip off of the existing strap. 
 

it’s been through plenty of rain and is water tight.

Big upgrade weekend. Add a 4” zone lift (so gives me 6” total), Fox 2.5 coilovers in the front, Fox 2.0 in the rear, flares, new tires and wheels. 

Love the fender flares! What kind are they?

There's a beacon wire in the cab spoiler on the driver's side of the third brake light right from GM.

Can you give more details? Picking up my new truck Friday so I don’t have anything to look at to fully understand. Do they provide a power and ground wire to hook up to so that you then add a switch inside?

if you are standing in the bed looking at the front of the truck, to the left of the red third brake light there is a wire pair tucked away in there. You have to drill an access hole (about finger sized will do. Too small and it will be difficult to pull the bundled wires out.) you can seal it off with a grommet and silicone. The wires come out underneath/behind the dash. I used the trailer brake controller harness (mine was included in the upper glove box) and I re-pinned it so the wires were correct. It plugs right in. You just need to run a power wire to the pass side fuse box and a ground.
