There over more than $2,100 of parts under the hood.

What did you think of the Painless harness? After doing mine, I came to the conclusion that "Painless" is just a name, not a description. I never finished mine actually. I was trying to be fussy, hiding wires, soldering and heat shrinking everything. Did everything under the hood and all the lights, but just the bare essentials in the cab. I couldn't wait to drive it. There's no heat or stereo anyway and that's most of the wiring so not a big deal to wait on that I guess. Seems all the other plans keep pulling rank on the wiring so even after a year....still not done. LOL
