If I do the lights, I was going to get a piece of 3 1/2" exhaust pipe and sink it in where the OE light is now but more to the side. So the pipe would be tapered into the side of the bed a little. The problem I see is the light is 6" long. I need access to the back side of it. To do so I will have to make the rear bedside post deeper with a accesss panel. To access the TL mount and wiring. It's still in the thinking stages. I did some quick measurements and that is what I see so far.

As far as the headlight mount panel pix, I'd like to have one with it assembled to the radiator support for referrence. Especially the lower center attachment. I know it is simple, but I thought someone might have a pic handy. Don't go to any trouble getting one. I can probably go to LMC and get a decent pic. I tried from work today but I was blocked. Scratch the LMC idea I just chcked it out and they didn't have a good IPB

I think I got that one.

A little got done tonight. I was able to repair the area I messed up. BTW it was all done above the floor support so the repair is not noticeable from underneath.



Also transfered the washer over. Still have to do the otherside.



The battery box was test fitted. Need to do a little manipulaton there as well. Two holes don't line up.
