Base your theme on your desired interior.
Use ANY aftermarket locking solenoids....but have a GOOD look at how the original mechanisms work!
the cab dramatically angles forward.....you won't see squat outta sport mirrors..."Swan Neck" mirrors are a happy medium between looks and function.
Take some time looking through member galleries on here....you'll see EVERY color imaginable. And BUMPER options too !

I like the 4" curved bracket mirrors but pass. side doesn't do much good, i had a new roll pan for the rear of my 51 but didn't like it so i traded it in for stainless rear bump with hugger brackets, not on yrt but they do look good.
