I need new (better) headlights...

Call it luck if you like, the glare is not there, I tested it more than once myself and with other people. It may be the focal length of this housing, the kelvin rating of the bulb, the glass lens, the type of HID bulb, I don't know.

I bought these over a year ago, they are glass and look as good as the day I bought them. They don't fog over and they don't turn yellow from the sun...

Honch's 93 RCSB DD

I hit the local u-pull this weekend, they had 3 88-98's and over 20 f-150's in the same year range. Needless to say the OBS's were pretty picked over. I found some lighting in one of them that I had been wanting to get. The interior and under hood accessory lighting. Because of how it is...

Earlier this week I managed to punch a hole in my sub, I had the center seat folded forward and when I put it back upright it shoved one of the seatbelts into the subs cone. Having a bench in the truck previously never made me really think about the vulnerability of the cone with no grille...

Today I put in the TYC lights and DDM HID's. I had quite a bit of trouble getting the passenger side light to fit correctly. Many of the pictures I see after people have replaced their lights show them sitting at angles in relationship to the opening in the grille, now I know why. After I...

Small update, no pictures. Last weekend I installed and wired up the Compass/Temp mirror, it works good and the compass changes perfect compared to a GPS I borrowed to test it. I also did the 4-high mod, something I have always wanted to do. It took about an hour with wiring the relay on the...

Honch's 93 RCSB DD

This weekend I had a bit more luck at the 3 acre pick and pull, in the form of a 2000 Suburban. When I got there the professional junkyarders were in the process of destroying the interior to get the door locks and window motors. I did manage to get the overhead console and Temp/Compass mirror...

This weekend I got the doors on the truck gutted and applied some more Peel N Seal inside. Transferring everything from the 97 doors was fairly simple. I was surprised by how different the doors actually were. Had I tried to put the 93 panels in 97 doors it would have been much more of a...

While it would be really cool to try and adapt this as my new gauge cluster, I wasn't able to convince my wife it would be. Her car like every other GM plastic interior had some creaks and rattles I worked on this weekend, one was the cluster itself. The rattles have gotten much worse since...

I decided to try something I had been thinking about for a while. I wanted to make a mount for my vice that allowed me to move it out of the way if I wanted to put something large on the work bench. I had read somewhere before about someone using a truck hitch mount and decided to give it a try...

My ACC Carpet from stockinteriors came in Wednesday, I purchased their base carpet with a mass back upgrade. I think the shorter nap carpet will be easier to keep clean than the plush. Saturday I finished the peel & stick in the footwells, and put in the new carpet. The installation was...

I had some surgery done to my left foot so was unable to work on this the last two weeks. During that time i did some reading on sound deadening and came across some threads where people had used "Peel N Seal" as a cheap alternative to the name brand sound deadeners. The only negative posts I...

The first step in tying the grey seats to the blue interior is going to be the headliner. The current one in the truck is perforated white with blue sun visors. The headliner in the truck was coming loose from the cardboard base and starting to sag in numerous areas. Last weekend my wife and I...
