Looking good Alex! I'm thinking of getting a custom 3" catback made maybe next summer, then shipping my PCM out to PCM4less or wait4meperformance to get a good base tune going.
We need to promote the single filter setup though, I think 10-15 filters is the way of the future.

You need inverted 194's for the gauges:

And inverted 37's for the HVAC:

All the other lights (dimmer switch, door controls, 4x4 controls, rear wiper controls and any other dash lights you might have) are all 12v LEDs:

I'm just waiting for my 37's to arrive, then I'll be installing them all this weekend hopefully. I'll try and take pics as I do it.
And I plan on making a few videos . I'll take some in the shop tonight if I can of just revving. Then I'll definitely take one either driving past, or driving away as soon as I get a chance. I'm very excited

yeah the HVAC and dimmer switches dont light up in my truck anymore cause i painted them white lol

lol...well that must be fun at night . So you can forget about the 37's then, but you would still need 194's for the gauges (6 of them) and everything else like your rear wiper control, steering wheel controls (if you have them) 4x4 buttons (if you have them) and window/mirror/lock controls are all the 12v LEDs. And they are tiny! They look like they're going to be a pain too since all of them have to be soldered on.

I saved all that, how many of each did you order? It'll save me a trip through my service manual

I ordered one of each from those people. You will need 6 194's for the gauges (It comes with 10). I believe you need 4 37's for the HVAC (haven't taken that apart yet..still waiting on them to arrive), but they also come in a 10 pack. I ordered all 120 of the 12v. I split up the colors though in case I wanted to switch from blue at some point. I don't have a total count of 12v ones you will need, but it's no where near 120. I think it's only around 15-20 of them.

looking good. Nice to see you start modding this thing.

Thanks Luis. I agree. I've been sitting in "stock" status pretty much since I joined. The only thing I did was de-badge it, so it's nice to finally put some money and parts into it. Look for more updates. I'm heading right to the shop after work to get my cherry bomb welded on, and I'll snap a pic of the intake installed then.

Well, the new exhaust is on, and it sounds AWESOME! It was pretty much exactly what I was looking for. Nothing obscenely loud, but you can definitely tell it's there. The lower RPM's sound mean, a nice deep rumble and when you punch it it sounds pretty good too.
I'll post up vids as soon as I take them...I didn't get a chance yet, but they definitely will be coming!
BTW - I love my trips to the garage...I usually pick up a bunch of free stuff. This time I scored a can of black paint. I'm going to paint my rims black this weekend. Also found a can of VHT Nightshade so I'm going to tint my tails and corners sooner then expected. I would of had to of ordered one online since it's illegal here, so this saves me some money and time. I plan on tinting them this weekend as well. And while I'm on the whole painting craze, I may pick up some cans of under coating and do my wheel wells and frame...lots more to come . I'll have new pics shortly.
