Thank you! The headlights are OEM HIDs for FX4s, the fog lights I bought from here:
Amazon Amazon
looks like they just raised the price to $53.

Different seller I think but still the exact same I believe (LED brake strip) https://www.ebay.com/itm/60-Flexible...-/252682716841

HP36 LED reverse lights from stage 3 http://www.stage3motorsports.com/BCK...-Lights-2.html

License plate LEDs
http://www.stage3motorsports.com/LIC...-Lights-2.html

Looks like the price came down a little on the Diode Dynamics bulbs or maybe it's a black Friday type thing

Would you mind posting a link to the one you purchased? Would be nice having a voltmeter. Is it always on? If I recall that outlet is hot.

Made three of these for my bakflip. Cost was just a couple grams of filament.

Wow, that is a great idea and looks good. I was just using a small carabiner that clips on and off on mine.

That's one thing I've done with every vehicle. Put the same Breaker bar and the correct socket in it.
I've never used a tire iron to take the out nuts off.

Wait... I'm wrong. My first car was a 76 Cadillac Sedan DeVille. It had hub caps.

I put on some 2015+ fender emblems that I got off eBay and painted them.

Oh lordy no, however you can order them printed from Makerbot right there on the page. Someone else who is using their printer to make money can print it for you.
