Man how did you relocate the Inverter button? I'd love to do this as having the button on the left dash makes zero sense since the plug is in the glove box.

I personally didn't do it, but had it done "free" when I was getting my remote starter installed. Installer said all he did was fish the wires from the drivers side to the console.

I agree, it is stupidly placed at the factory, SHOULD be on the center console.
 
Installed a small LED in the center console. Wired it to turn on when the lights are turned on (like my ambient footwell LEDs). Same LED in fact. Anyway I taped it under the coin holder.

This mod is self-explanatory, I hate looking for stuff and not seeing anything in there.

Link to these LEDs: Oznium.com, look under project lights. These are pre-wired and you choose the color.

Ah gotcha thanks, probably need seperate the wires for that switch from the rest by cut the tape holding all the switch wires for the dash buttons and route the switch to the center console.
I'll have a look in a couple of days to see if it's worth the effort.
 
This weekend I decided it was time to get the spare tire out of the cargo area. Most of the items I sourced from around the garage. I had to purchase lug nuts, bolts, license plate light and more wire for the welder otherwise I had stuff laying around. I cut two tow hitches to repurpose them. I had an adapter I found on the road by the sand dunes near Beatty NV. I also repurposed the spare tire carrier from my old pickup truck bed trailer. I’m happy with how it turned out at least until I build one similar to what @porcupine82 had built (details in 4th Gen Armor Thread).
My main goal besides getting an 80 Lb projectile out of the back of the rig should I get in an accident was to also be able to tow my trailer without removing the spare.

Been a while since I’ve been on here, finally gave it a much needed face lift. Needed a new grille and headlights real bad. Oh yeah, and I added a Coastal Off-road bumper a few months back. Really happy with how it looks again.

Christmas lights lit up: P0031. Ordered Denso Air/Fuel mixture sensor. Took all of 5 minutes to replace. Reset codes, drove 150+ miles issue fixed! V8
 
TPMS Delete

TPMS delete completed. I got screwed by Discount Tires saying my TPMS sensors were wrong, when in actuality, they Run a proprietary sensor.
Anyways, did the delete, took about 5 minutes to complete. No more tire light on the dash.

Looks good. I prefer the no hoop look too. You weld it up or have a local fab guy do it? I've been looking at their bumper kits since its release but havent pulled the trigger.

You guys are making me want to cut my hoop off now and go back to flat. It does look good.

Man, I love the look of the Coastal Off-road bumper. I think in terms of design its my favorite. Need a welder first unfortunately so it will have to wait.

Tons of people unloading tools on Craigslist. Just be patient and check daily. You'll find a good deal.
