I finally put something after market on my truck...
I got my Birthday money from my parents and decided to brighten things up a bit (Pun intended).
All the lights are cheapo's from HF or Meijer. The top set are the "off road lighting system" you can buy and then the amber fogs are the 14.99 ones that are just basic 55w lights. The stock Fog lights were all but destroyed so I replaced those with the aux driving lights from Meijer. All in all, I've probably spent about 5 hours on it.
I soldered all the connections I could inside my house and then took them out and installed them. I had a Problem with my Soldering iron outside so I had to use Crimp Connectors I'm looking into getting a Butane Soldering Iron. I just can't get the Iron to get hot enough with a Plug in one Outside. Even when It's plugged directly into a Socket. It also is a Pain to back the truck up to the Side of the house just to get the iron in range.
I have yet to Wire up switches in the Cab. I plan on getting relays and doing it the right way. Here's some pics.
These (Above) "off road lights" will have a Switch that will make them have three options. ON(always on)/Auto(brights)/Off. These are attached through the bumper. If you plan on doing this, Mind the teeth of your drill when you get close to the Grill, it'll eat up the chrome, Be careful.
These (Above) will be hooked up to the parking lights and have the same options as the off road lights except instead of brights, It'll be the parking lights. They are Attached to the Lower Valance. They do bounce a bit, but I don't mind.
These (Above) are the stock configuration. Not a huge Surprise.
These (Above)are all of them on.
My truck has White eye in this one (Above). (red eye for Trucks)
My "artsy" picture of them all on. Ready and Waiting for the sun to set. If you look hard enough, You can see my foot. Thank you for looking at my pictures.
