Truck Transformation

Well, today I started on the biggest part of my truck's transformation! I installed my new deck, as well as last weekend I installed the full length tool box! In order to install the tool box I had to somewhat butcher the plastic rails on the box of the truck

I have a small list of things that I wish to do to my truck, so I will list it here and mark it off as I finish it.
  • Install Tool Box - Done!
  • Paint Tool Box
  • Buy & Install Towing Mirrors
  • Get Leather Seats
  • Find & Fix Anti-Freeze Leak - Done! (Appears to have simply quit :S)
  • Fix Door Lock
  • Replace Tail Gate
  • Fix Dash Cup/Ash Tray Holder
  • Hardwire GPS - Done!
  • Build/Install Sub Box With Subs
  • Fix License Plate Light
  • Install New DIN - Done!
  • Replace Stock Speakers
  • Do Oil Change

Yes obviously not my dash or pic but gives you the idea, given the fact that mine is identical to that.

After:

[*]Replace Stock Speakers
[*]Do Oil Change
I know a lot of it is simple and small stuff, however it still should be done and do it I shall, especially the oil change!

I will get pictures of the DIN and the tool box that are already done tomorrow, since it is waaaay too late now to take them! Also I will have before and after pictures so you can all see my transformation!
