well a few little changes.... i picked up a XL SD grill and a white knite backup light system. today i went ahead and installed both. man i can really see backing up now! they are no joke! what i really like is it looks very clean.
the new grill looks mean IMO i really love it! now i need some lights for the bar...$$$ lol
before....the old grill
the new look...i like it much better.
in alittle different lighting, the color match is about as perfect as you can get..lighting can throw it off(direct sunlight)
and just a side note...i hate my muddy driveway! so hard to keep anything clean. i have to creep in/out and make sure the tires are clean before i go over 10mph.

yeah the light does block the 7pin tailer connector. but it just pulls out of the hitch so you could put a shank in and tow all you want. but this truck will never see a trailer so no biggie :-p
i would like to find out if anybody knows where the fuse/relay for the "trailer charge wire" in the 7 pin plug is. i dont have a '02 owners manaul and my 2000 manual is useless. any help?
i like the tan bug deflector for alittle contrast.
skip, i like the idea of strobes! ugh more money haha

problem is my '02 dosnt have a underhood fuse box like the '00. they are all under the dash and as far as i can tell they are all there.
i've installed more 7way plugs then i'd like to admit. i'm not getting power out of the charge wire. when i ran into this at work on SDs it was allways the fuse blown..so i figure its the same in my case but idk where the damn thing is lol or i toatly missed it.
