I've had an interior rattle since the day I bought this truck. Took the dash apart a few times while installing audio and fishing wire but could never find the source. I finally had enough and removed as much trim as I could. The culprit was a few extra trim clips courtesy of the factory sitting in the back along the AC ducts and passenger airbag.

While I had everything apart, I put thin 3M automotive felt on most of the mating joints, changed out a few of the dash pieces (grey to black), re-wired the sub and connectors with nicer terminals and installed Armorlite flooring. I'm happy to say no more rattles.

What screen hud / air conditioner change do you have there? Is that aftermarket or is that the newer versions?

Well, Tuesday I put the soft top on for the first time - took the hard top off and put the soft top on during a thunderstorm. I do not recommend. Today Toothgnasher got its name plates on.

I like that. Was thinking about wrapping all the way to the edge of the indent past the hood vents. Is that printed or overlayed vinyl? I wonder how the topo would look cutout to show the red as the topo lines. Though I need a bigger vinyl cutter than my 12". Oh honey..... Every project needs a new tool, lol.

It’s printed. I got it from adventure life USA, might be worth hitting them up, they might be able to custom make what you’re looking for

People were nicer back when it was normal to not only beat your kids but even your wife if she was out of line? I guess so long as you were an adult male you might have the illusion that people were nicer.
