Just installed am Airaid OE high flow filter last night. Didn't really see the need to post pick for that. The air filter box is a bit of a pain in the ***** to get into compared to other vehicles I've had but it worked out fine. too soon to tell about the mpg's. I'll fill up in a few days and keep an eye on that.

I put mine on the inside of the driver's side bed rail dead even with the bed rail hole/pocket. I ran the cable from my CB, through the dash, behind and under the weather stripping and door sills, down through a rubber plug in the floor(I cut a slit in the center of the plug), out of the cB a short distance and up between the cab and the bed to the antenna mount. I'll take a few pics tomorrow and post them.

Default Headlights

Painted the backside rim of the headlights black to give the appearance of a black border all the way around the light and sprayed NiteShades and clear-coat on the side-marker.

Grey and black is always an awesome combo! Radio is really cool. Looking into one for mine.
