Ok, I read this whole thread and nobody has asked you about that COOL *** Thin Blue Line/Dont tread on Me/FX4 graphics in the back of your truck bed.. Those are pretty cool. Where did you get those? Custom made I would assume.

Edit: Someone did ask bout it towards the end.. still.. very cool

Nice build. I'm curious about the front camera. Did you install a Raptor camera? I'm trying to build my own Raptor style grille and was wondering how to incorporate the front camera with the camera washer. It appears the Raptor camera has the washer built on top whereas my Lariat has the washer extend out, sprays the camera, then goes back into the abyss from whence it came. One last thing...did you have to adjust/realign the front camera after installing it on your Raptor style grille?

I reused the camera that came with my Plat. The aftermarket grille didn't come with a camera mount, so I had to cut and epoxy the old camera to fit. Once I had the hole cut out, I had to align the camera and then I epoxied it in. I know it's not the best solution, but it works.

I see. Looking back at your original setup it appears that your camera is similar to a Raptor's which is what prompted why question. My camera is integrated into the Ford emblem. Perhaps I need to get a Raptor camera.

Been a while since I posted here...since my last post...I've added 20 inch fuel wheels, AlphaRex Nova "black" headlights, white LEDs for the grill and Boost Auto Parts switchback Tow Mirrors.


FULL lights on!
