Damn you!! I never really thought about getting my emblems painted. Seeing yours and 96grimreaper's I added them to my list of stuff to buy.

Default Tail Lights

Next Livnitup figured out how to get Hill Descent Control to work on trucks not equipped, and I figured "Why not"



That brings me up to Thanksgiving, when I find a 2015 Lariat Tailgate with built-in step on eBay...again GOTTA HAVE IT!!




Of Course with my truck being an XLT the electronic handle had to be swapped out, which meant I lost the trailer hook-up light as mine didn't have it - that is until I found another thread on how to add that little gem too
I've been looking at getting a pair of OEM LED tail lights for my truck. I see you said you go tthem from Ebay, did you get a one off set or did you get them from a vendor that is selling them? Thanks, truck looks good!

I bought a used set.....if you wait a little while you might be able to buy mine. I'm thinking about upgrading to the 2018 version.

Default Baby steps: Part Deuce

Tailgate is dirty due to rain / snow / cold / etc. but I did manage to get the rear oval installed this afternoon. Hopefully Friday afternoon I'll be able to run the harness & install the headlights
