Thanks for the link. Do you have any info or pics of how you wired them up.

Did you go with the 60 degree flood or the 30 degree spot pattern?

Also. Pictures of how these are mounted to the fog light housing or other bracketry.

Default Awesome!

Dude that is flat out awesome. Been scratching my head for months trying to figure something out without butchering up my headrest. Thanks for the idea!




I've been looking for a cup holder I could modify, and this was it. $6.99 mod. I have a detailed write-up in the fabrication section. This can be easily removed if desired, or it can be left in place even when using the jump seat for a passenger.[/QUOTE]

You can also slide out the headrest if you don't use it. Clears up that space a bit.

Glad you like it! It would be nice to find an old crappy headrest that you could strip the cloth and pad off of, then you would still have full use of the lower cup holders also. The rails of the headrest hold the cup holder in place.

Also, if you didn't want to plastic weld the bottom of the holder, you could just trim it down. I don't think it would affect the performance.

I got some great ideas from this thread.

LED interior lights
LED puddle lights
LED reverse lights
Usb 2 mod
Tailgate assist
Tailgate remote lock still need to install

I also added dynomax 4" tip to the stock exhaust pipe.

Update on led cab lights. I was concerned they wouldn't flood past my toolbox but they do for sure. Nice $20 mod from this thread I picked up the jdm astar 1000 lumen from amazon.
