Ok nice, yea when I had my 96 I ran it the same way except up through the 4x4 shifter. But thats a clean install you got. I hate when people run it through the ext cab window.

Looks good. I like how everythign flows now. How do you like the 20% sides. I have 35% now Id like to go with 20 soon.
I like them so far.

The 20%:
Its a different feeling driving at night with the 20% vs the 35%. I found it was a little trickier on back roads where theres no light at all. Its almost like tunnel vision (only way i know to describe it). You can see straight ahead but not anything out the sides. You can still see the glow of headlights behind you if theres a car but thats about it. It felt weird the first night but now ive gotten used to it.

In town driving at night, is not bad at all. I didnt have a problem.

During the day time its no problem at all, i can still see perfectly fine out of them.

The 5% brow:
This has only proved tricky once, came up to a intersection with a stop light, pulled up too far and could barely see when the light turned green through it.
