How difficult was it to get the instrument panel out? Should be about the same on a 95 150 xlt? Cause I would like to do this too but with red LEDs instead

Hey man, sorry i didn't get back to you sooner. Ive been fighting a wildfire with my crew for the last two weeks. It's easy to take the instrument panel out, just 8 bolts or so, should be painless. Plus you can do it on a rainy day if you can't do other work on your truck (or don't want to in the rain lol) cause you can just sit in the cab and crank the tunes up while you do it!

Replaced ignition coil, distributor cap, rotor, all the spark plugs and plug wires.
Put a new ignition lock cylinder in cause the old one was shot, and put new headlight assemblies in!


Ordered new Rancho rear shocks today, and a new throttle cable

Also threw in a pic i snapped of some heli-torching on our last fire
