Re: What did you do to your truck today!
![]() As for me, I decided to change out RAT's plates. She'll always be RAT to me. But, since she's in the paint jail waiting for silver, I decided to gowith this plate. I ordered it. It'll look pretty close to this. Of course, it's a play on The Lone Ranger deal.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I have that same control setup for mine and was thinking about doing something similar. What did you use to mount that in? I was thinking about a radio delete panel but that looks fantastic.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I committed some more sacrilege and used a crown vic wire harness as a donor to make a new engine harness. not exactly a MisterB underhood cleanup but atleast it doesn't cut out when I hit a bump and I can finally get to those last two plugs :-)
does anybody out there know what the fuseable link running to the battery is suppose to be for? I looked at the wiring diagram can't tell what it's actually for, mine's always been disconnected. thanks Before After
