Default MOBBiN's 2014 STX build

My wife and I bought this truck a few months ago. We needed a bigger family car. We have a 5 year old and a baby due May 5th. Like all my other vehicles, I can't seem to leave anything alone.

The truck is a STX so it's pretty basic, I wont complain because I got a killer deal and now I get to upgrade it. A few upgrades is like to do is a XLT cluster and steering wheel, a full center consle , power seats with some nice seat covers and tinted windows.

The night I got it 2/2/15

So far I've added a factory autostart, raptor tails, leds in the cargo lights and license plate lights and a TonnoSport.

With the tails and TonnoSport:

I've got some lighting upgrades I'm working on. I have a set of Rigid D2s in the my garage. I'm trying to decide where to put them.

Im also fixing up some retrofitted lights I bought.
The top is the new and improved bottom is how I bought the lights:

I blacked out the reflectors with krylon matte black, the turn signals with night shades, I added matte chrome Panamera shrouds with white 120mm halos. The Hid kit is the H1 miromoto 50w 4300k from the retrofit source. They where awesome to work with and I'll be doing business with them again soon.

I got a killer deal on the lights from a guy off the boards

The nice thing is that no resistors are needed!

No I got it from Amazon. It was $237 with free shipping from Amazon. I had to wait a few weeks for Amazon to get them back in stock. The next closest company was $350 shipped.
