i know what ya mean my blaz was bone stock in july when i bought it a few months later it looks like it does now. but nice truck what kind of lights are u gonna yous yet? i had 4 maxtel 6" lights on top of my 4x4 yoda those are some bright lights i think i payed 350 for all 4. they would light up any trail i had ever played in. what do u think about that cherry bomb sound wise? i have some what been looking at that and flowmaster 40 but not for shure yet. whats next?

 

Not sure about the lights yet. There were some cheap small rectangle lights on sale at a shop here for $10 a piece....that's the only reason I was going to pick them up lol. I figured I couldn't do wrong for that price. I think I missed that sale though (they were sold out when I went), so I doubt I'll be getting the lights anytime soon.
I like the CB Turbo. It's not too obnoxious, but it's definitely there. I hear the flowmaster 40 is an amazing sounding exhaust with the 4.3 though, so I'd go with that if you have the opportunity to. I just wanted a little more sound for as little cost as possible. The Turbo was only $45.
As for what's next....nothing for a while lol. I'm taking a break for the winter I think. Gotta try and save up some cash, plus I gotta have oil to heat my home...so that extra expense eats up a lot of my cash.
If I'm lucky though, Santa will bring me a body lift (not holding out for it though...wouldn't be surprised if I didn't). If he does, then that will be going on in the spring. Hopefully some new tires in the spring too. Other then that I don't really have many plans for now.

 

Here's some pics I snapped last night of the LEDs. Sorry for the crappy quality. I had to over expose them so you can see them. They look awesome in person.

 

those pics make me wish i had maplights but mine didnt come with any

 

i love the Blue interior leds normally i dislike blue but it looks good how many leds did u youse under the dash. was there much soldering in the gauge panel to install the leds or do they plug in? I can solder a little bit but i have only practiced on rc cars and stereo stuff. im going back through to read up on the count but im thinkin red.

 

They are nice. They come in handy, that's for sure!

Thanks man. The LEDs are really easy to install..literally plug and play. I used 2 bulbs for the foot wells (one per side). The stock bulb just pops out and you put the LEDs in.
There is no soldering to do the gauges or HVAC. The only ones you have to solder are the things like window controls, mirror controls, 4x4, rear wiper control, dimmer switch, etc.
I think I posted the LED count and info back on page 2...take a look though. It was 6 for the gauges and 4 for the HVAC. I used the 4 left over gauge ones in the map lights (2) and foot wells (2).
If you need any help, just let me know.

And I missed this post Pat..my bad. I really don't have much problems with bogging down. I don't notice that big of a gain, which I could attribute to the filter IMO. I do plan on getting a decent one (not K&N though) at some point. I like the way it sounds like a blow off valve or a supercharger winding up though

And on a side note..I just updated the main post of my build with contents and links to all of my mods within the thread. Thought it would make it easier for ppl to navigate..

 

yeah thanx i had went back to find the count here are the ones im ordering now for the gauges i am amazed at how cheap they are thanx for the info and help.

That's the good thing about LED's...they're extremely cheap!
They're the same bulbs I got...can't wait to see the red. You tend to see more blue then red. Let us know when you get them in.

 

you might have to look for those LED's on ebay.com cause ebay.ca will only let you put in a canada address.

 

If you have trouble with ebay Canada I'm sure that seller is on the .com ebay. They ship all over.
