there should be some plastic plugs plugs on the bottom of the cab that come up under the door trim, and then into the bed however you wish, probably though the stake pockets.

To run my CB wire I pulled the drivers side kick panel, drivers side door sill..Not seal I meant to spell sill.. Pulled up the carpet on that side and removed the body plug under the drivers side. I cut the body plug to accept the wire. I ran the wire up through the floor along the sill around the kick panel and up through the dash. I re-installed the body plug with the wire in the slit I cut. I used some silicone to seal it in. The CB antenna is mounted to the inside front of the bed si I ran the wire between the bed and made a small U inside the bed to get to the bottom of the antenna. If you are going farther back then just run the wire along the frame rail. What are you installing?

train horns, i installed the horn under my husky full size tool box, and installed the compressor in the tool box with a dividers, so it does not touch anything..

the poblem is the amount of wire they send ya, it is not enough at all!!!!

i was going to mount the horns to the box fram on the right sidce, but to install it you drill holes and then use their nut and screw, adn the nut and screw are not long enough to go through the f'ing frame hahahah

From last night at 10 30 to 1 30 am this morning , i brainstormed and figured out exactgly wat i want to do./.

1. i am not tapping into my existing horn, i am getting a switch with a red led arm light and a red button for the horn, so i am going to need plenty of wires and switchs and coil covers



hopefully i will finish tonight.


last night work included: finding pathway for wires, and where to put everything and mounting hte main parts and the air hose.



its harder than it looks
