Next items up are a toolbox and shortened tonneau.
Thanks for the info. That tint looks nice, trying to figure out what I want to do on mine, and the truck looks good. What color toolbox you thinking of, black or the polished aluminum? I think black might look good.

Are you going with the tool box tonnuea? (I still can't spell that word worth a damn) LOL.
I was originally going to do a tool box tonneua on my 88 till I got the bed rails so now my plan is a regular tonneua and an in bed truck box. It will be more hidden to since all I will be keeping in their is my motorcycle gear and a few tools to work on the bike and truck (hopefully it never comes to that).

We did this awhile ago, but I don't think I ever posted it.
When we did the cab swap on the 93 we put in a new seat because the original looked liked this.
My cousin-in-law owns an upholstery shop so he fixed up the old seat, and my Dad and I built a frame for it.
So here is how it sits now, in our game room/man cave. (Dad's a big Cowboys fan)

Fog lights (with white lenses, not amber) are a better solution. They throw a wide beam that helps light up the shoulders, but it doesn't disperse up so it doesn't shine into other car's windows. To make the beams spread out even further you can (should) aim the lights off to the side a bit. Here's a pretty good picture of how I've got it set up on my Bronco. I've got the same thing on my pickup. I've got the fog lights wired to come on with my running lights, so I use them in traffic a lot. And when they're aimed right I've never had people flash lights at me to tell me they're too bright.
I had it painted Sonic Blue (color code SN), a 2004 Ford truck (and car)color. I saw a lot of Rangers and Mustangs (and a few Super Duties) that color.
There's a build thread on it in my sig if you're interested.
