SWEET! Thanks! 
Again, .....looks fantastic. I LOVE the Cool White more than most i've seen!(no offense to anyone with RED dash, etc... those look good too...) And in fact, I'm not sure how much light I want from my dash.... so I left those alone(I had new LED lights for the dash... gave them to a buddy, cuz I can see mine fine and don't like when it's too bright while driving in there, ya know? lol). Actually, yours just looks more, well, 'CRISP', .... not so much BLINDING, lol. (I saw you said something about that, thought you were talking about the dash, right?)... I'm definitely going to take them out and clean them up though...(the old greenies, lol... HEY< it does help, ya know?)
Keep it up, man! Let me know when you are wanting to go hit the Angeles Crest and just don't wanna roll alone into the Great White North-of you, hehehe.

In my f150 they dim really well, but in my 4runner, they barely dim. But frankly, I've never dimmed my lights before so it doesn't bother me. Technically speaking, leds don't dim, they are either on or off, but some of these bulbs sense the load and flash real fast to appear to be dim.

Killer rig. Just read through the whole thread and wish I had your motivation to work on my rigs.
The LED interior lights look awesome. Makes the dash look brand new.

no college. I'm happily employed in my career as an Lexus Technician 
Just got some SR5 seats swapped into my truck for free. My uncle is selling is crawler ( for cheap) and said if i came over and put my seats in his, i could do it for free. What a difference!
although I do wish he wasn't selling his truck.

It was very capable.

I think:
power locks, windows, mirrors
rear view mirror with dual map lights
Seats (you know)
Carpet instead of vinyl
Inclinometer (you have already)
SR5 cluster with oil pressure, temperature gauge
That's all I can think of right now.

yea thats about the same list i have. Power stuff, I'd rather do without to keep simplicity.
I wouldnt mind finding some map lights, and i have a turbo cluster which is like the sr5 except it has a little blue light and says turbo at the bottom, I'm guessing to indicate when boosting.
