Nice looking truck. What did you use for the mounts on the wiper cowl lights? I used thin aluminum bars (not sure what they are actually called) and bent it into shape.

thanks guys and yes the trucks been a work of art since the day i bought her it started out as a small project then into a full on build as i love the gm platform trucks. she does me well but the fire was a big set back and i nearly lost her. now shes back stronger then ever and over 15 000 invested into the truck since i bought it.

i used homedepot l brackets and drilled out the holes larger to fit the bolts through then it was a matter of positioning the lights and wiring it all up. looks wicked on the truck
