Looking great! Are you going to do any suspension upgrades?

Coming along nicely. Glad to see those lights have the white reflector instead of the amber. Now replace the turn signals with led 3157 switchbacks and corners marker lights with 194 white leds.

Plastidip the chrome trim on the hood black for now.

2/3 drop will look good. Looking at a little more $$ to keep autoride with a drop kit but your ride not mines. I personally think the system is outdated and too spendy to keep and maintain. Install helper bags and call it good.

Thanks, I'm definitely going to do LED's just didn't feel like taking the dash apart to replace the flasher, not a fan of resistors, if the shocks, compressor and ride height sensors weren't all new id look at ditching it, it was all replaced before I got it

Yup so much easier just go to Napa and they have the LED flasher in a day swapped it out on my OBS

I remember doing that with my 89 back when leds first came out. But I've checked recently and they didn't carry flashers for newer vehicles.

I'm in the same boat. I'll probably ditch the front shocks @ some point, but the rears are new. I'm sure if something fails in the rear I'll just delete it, but otherwise there is no reason to.

Had no idea that was an option! Where is the how to?

It looks like there is one for the flasher and hazards replaced them on my OBS and the LED's worked perfect there are a few vids online you take that lower dash panel off under the wheel and ones there not sure on the other but if it's like the OBS you need to do both or they won't work

HMm looks really easy...

I like this WAY better then resistors.

I'm also finding something called the "pin 7 mod" to modify the OEM one.

I did my flasher and it was fairly easy, just wiggle it front to back not up and down and it comes out easier lol.

Can't believe that I have never seen that before.

Ya it's way better then resistors screw that nonsense, I'll only be running 4 bulbs off it since my rear tails are LED with a built in resistor
