Ok not much new other than I mounted my license plate on my tailgate with one of the stock lights.......now im looking for a french kit. You know the little box that recesses the plate into the tailgate......anyone know where I can find one? All the sites I find look a bit shady.

So I havent been on in a long while. Few minor changes.
Got rock sliders on. Can kinda see them here.
Weather is nice now...made quick disconnect door hinges.
Frenched my plate Painting it here in a bit.
My buddy made quick disconnects too....so I stole one of his doors lol
Got HIDs. 8000K VERY BRIGHT
Glamour shots before sliders and plate.
Why I got sliders lol
Last minute snow.
Also I got rid of the 3rd Gen grill.
Hope you all like it.

I didnt. Its pretty straight forward. My kit was plug and play for the most part. I dont have highbeams though. On the HID plug I needed to switch some wires around for them to work. I've also heard people having to run the plug backwards at the ballast. Something about reversing the polarity. Well worth it though. They are bright. If you get HIDs I dont recomend anything over 8000k and dont get projector or black housings. They are horrible. I know because my kit came with black projector housings....wouldnt even light up my dark garage. But the chrome non projector ones I got off ebay work amazing. Light doesnt scatter and its plenty bright.
