    Wow. That's a steal.

    Do we wanna know what it cost to do the painted top? Probably not. But I'm sitting down so let's have it.

    There's finally a well thought out, affordable Starlink Mini mount that doesn't cost more than the device itself. 3D printed and super easy to install using the pre-existing bolts. I've had my Starlink sitting in the box for four months. Time to break it out! Made by Mohave Custom Design.

    Battery Replacement

    Yes, a specific charger is needed. You can't charge a lithium ion battery with a charger designed solely for lead acid batteries. AG has a new line of chargers out now, they charge lithium as well as lead acid and everything in between and come up to 10 amp hours at an affordable price. We...

    New low mount "4th" brake light. I can now almost see out the back window. I say 4th as I have the Diode Dynamics trailer hitch light, the new version which acts as a brake light and reverse light. I only need to have it center mounted and at a height greater than 15" and I could have just...

    Full display rearview mirror

    It's different when you wear reading glasses. I can see fine at distance (from about 3.5ft. out) but can't see anything up close so when I read a book, look at my phone, computer, etc...I have to wear glasses. The mirror is just close enough to my head that I can't focus on a digital screen. So...

    Center plastic on hood

    A ceramic coating like Gyeon Can Coat Q2 Evo is the way to go. SUPER easy to apply and lasts a year. As a bonus, you can use it on everything including the paint and even the non-painted flares. For the flares, almost everything I tried led to a streaky finish. Except the Can Coat. I do it...

    Full display rearview mirror

    Don't get me wrong, you can (not so clearly) see there's a car, truck or whatever there but I can't focus on it and have a sharp image. Maybe I can get Wolfbox to make a +1.5 clear screen cover, LOL. And I do not use corrective sunglasses so you may fare better unless they're true readers...

    Full display rearview mirror

    If you wear reading glasses, you'll hate the digital mirror. I have the Wolfbox installed on mine and I use reading glasses with a +1.5 mag which isn't much. I can't tell the make and model of the cars behind me. Couldn't tell you if that Ford Explorer was actually a cop car or some asshat...

    OEM third brake light removed and replaced with the Fast Intentions bracket and Morimoto brake light. I have it temporarily installed and will do a full writeup once the rest of the parts come in. It's quite easy to remove the OEM brake light. The hardest part, really, is re-installing the...

    Battery Replacement

    Look at the Antigravity H7 80Ah batteries as well. They shave 40 pounds over the OEM battery and being lithium, charge in about 1/3 the time of a lead acid battery. I'm a dealer for them and can get you a nice Braptor discount. On top of that, they have a built-in jump start feature although...

    Reverse Light Kit/Chase light as well?

    Curious if there's a plug and play harness to bridge the Morimoto to the factory third brake light harness? Or was it a case of cutting the plug off the OEM and reusing it? I don't have any use for chase lights at this time and already have three reverse lights mounted elsewhere and wired...
