also, u kinda lost me wit the other two. is the tailgate LED just the light strip? and whats the Hyperwhite kit? headlights?

Yea they have a new tailgate light (at least it was new to me) and it has a white reverse light as well at the traditional red for brakes and turns.

I had the same set up on my Ranger for about 4 years without and yellow in the front and usually get compliments from cops. Hopefully I will not get in any trouble with them.

eh im still workin on that. so far ive stuck to the exterior because thats what people will notice first. but what ive done so far is i bought some weathertech floor liners. living on a ranch, all the dirt and rocks and stuff that get stuck to ur boots is hard as hell to keep off my black carpet. i saw a truck on here wit a set, so i ordered them. a lil pricey, but that work great! and they also go well wit the rest of the plastic-style interior, like around the kick panels and stuff, so it gives it an even look. ive been wantin to do a gauge replacement, and hopefully, when my brother gives me back my system, ill start wit the sound. im a big music critique, and it bothers me that i cant hear every part of a song.

a friend of mine put infiniti kappa 6x8s in the doors and, upon my recommendation, a JL audio amp and W1 10 inch sub with a JVC unit with ipod interface. its pretty much the best setup ive ever heard in my life. crisp and clean wit enough bass rattle ur butt and enough highs to shatter ur windows! thats what im savin up for next. but ill probably do that AFTER my extended warranty goes out
