So wheres the How To? :]

Thanks alot brother! i was surprised no one did it on this site so i wanted to be the first! ha anyways, i ordered some cool looking switches and they havent come in yet, so just to take these pics i hooked it up to the battery. u actually can hook it up to the battery and just put ur switch in there, but im going to wire em under the drivers side sill plate and tap into the dome light.. dont worry though, as soon as those switched come in ima give u a FULL write up. it was easy! im also putting leds in the footwells and the outside door handles so look out for those as well :banana:

Can't wait to see the write up. You'll have to put a link in this thread when you do it.

U'll be surprised of how easy it is. i did purchase prewired LED's off of ebay that were already set up with resistors n everything, that made it easy. u goin red too?!?! ima have a write up for the outdoor handles that would look great on ur truck too if thats ur thing

That's a very cool addition... It looks very neat and not over done... Good Job...

Looks great.:thumbsup: I did that when I had my 02. Seeing it makes me want to do it again.

Off the subject where did you get your steering wheel cover. All the ones I find dont fit the steering wheel.

Either the 04-08 section or right here in the Interior section is fine too.

thanks man! do it again! ha oddly enough i found this one at pep boys for 12 bucks and it looks and feels great.. its allll worn out tho, they still carry em so i might go buy another. i believe its for a 15 inch wheel. they fit, but u really gotta muscle it on and stretch out the cover a bit
