Re: I am from the Desert
Looks great, love that you kept the cowl vents. Did you have the truck painted or did you do it?

Re: I am from the Desert
Nice! What harness did you go with? Everything looks so nice under your dash. I need to get under mine at some point and sort it out as well. It has become a mess during its lifetime.
