There BETTER be a how-to on this or else. This is now on the to-do list for my truck. It is awesome.

Nice job Pat..as always...everytime you come up with a new mod it makes me think I should move to Texas, park the truck at your place, toss you the keys and say go nuts!! You never cease to come up with new mods. Can't wait to see it finished.

Subscribing. Want to see the finished product. Looks good so far, I have high hopes that it will look awesome in there.

yesterday I....
started building the wiring for the console
removed my dash
rewired all my accessories and put connectors where I had to cut wires when removing the dash
got the dash back in, got the airbags in and got it driveable for work this morning

Need to finish wiring the console harness, so i left the lower panel off below the steering column, and install the rest of my trim pieces.

Going to try and order a bracket i need today from Ford, and pics tonight when i get home

Still need to finish wiring it up, but yah. nearing the end of the install. Then ill need to fiberglass the console deck.

If I were to do a writeup, it will only work on 2wd trucks.....

because the 04-08 trucks have the "od off" light on the cluster not on the shifter. So im using my spare light in my cluster "4wd engaged" light as my "OD off"
