Thanks for all the compliments.

Manshe looks good basking in the sun. I'm not a big blue fan, but this makes me like it a whole lot more.

Did you say the lights don't work that well? I have been considering them myself.

They're not real bright. I don't know why they're not, they're just not. It may be the blue bulbs I have in them. I'm planning on changing back to the white bulbs to see if that helps ,(someday). I'll keep you posted when I do.

**N2TRUX** · 12-27-2008, 08:07 PM

Thanks. Yeah I imagine the blue bulbs don't help much.

VA72C10 · 12-27-2008, 08:35 PM

Looks great...I actually really like our trucks with the vent windows...What brand headlights are those? Any fogging issues?

Not sure of the actual brand, but I got them from LMC.

I swapped the blue bulbs in them for some white ones, it's alot better now.

Clean ride. I've always loved these trucks and while casually visiting/lurking/reading through posts this past weekend, I came across this thread. Now I'm determined to find one of my own in '09. Keep up the good work. Your truck is a HUGE inspiration. There seems to be a good amount of TX folks on here too.

Rockin!

I should have the seat back from the upholstery shop in a few days. Like I said the material I am having it covered in is kind of different.

HAHA

No, animal skin involved.

NWD02 · 01-18-2009, 03:51 AM

Did you have to do any additional wiring when installing the headlights? I have a set I'm planning on putting in. I haven't wired my truck yet.

Thanks.
