DOH!! No big deal, at least I know it is there now! Cant wait to clean up the bed, just took the bridge planks out yesterday that I use for winter weight. Still looking for a OEM bed mat, but almost 100% certain I will order a DeeZee mat on ebay today since they have a 15% off coupon good until 7pm pacific.

Got a little free time today and got my OEM bed lighting installed. The lights are OEM and the wiring is added in. I borrowed the idea from John Day and tapped into my cargo light wiring. All in all took 3 solid hours of working but turned out exactly how I wanted. They obviously come on with the dome/cargo, so using the keyfob unlock is my main trigger. Had I seen the ground bolt at the rear of the drivers side frame, I could have ran a little less wiring....oh well. On to the pics (still light outside, but you get the idea.

Yes Mike, I did the best I could, but they do come with a foam gasket installed. If moisture continues to get in, I will add a little more silicone. Not the most amount of room to work in there (working from the backside with the taillights removed).

Same here Jon. It’s crazy windy right now. So loud I couldn’t sleep. Power has been off for a while also. We’re expecting a line of brutal storms this afternoon with possible tornados again. Stay safe Brother!
