    so after the turn signal install, I want to make sure the horn is working before I put everything back together. If I push the little plunger down on the turn signal switch down should the horn sound off or am I missing a ground of some sort with the lock plate not installed?? I know there is a...

    Tail light modification

    I would only be cutting out on the line that is shown, It is like a plastic fin of sorts, seems to me it would put a little more light out to the side as to alert some of the sleepy ddrivers that are out there these days. LED bulbs are coming

    Tail light modification

    my thought was that it might put more light out to the side on the brake and turn signal usage, not so much with just tail lights, I am gonna go with LED bulbs back there at some point. I think it should still be sealed as I wouldn't be disturbing the gasket around the lens cover

    Tail light modification

    Anyone else done this? Thinking of cutting away this part so to get a little more light out of the side of the tail lights and turn signal and brakes too. Thoughts?

    LED question cluster

    I did replace the light on the 4x4 floor cover with LED as well, I did not do the hvac and still have incandescents on the dome and courtesy lights. I did every bulb on the back of the dash cluster

    turn signal switch install

    it has a little movement but not much. I don't think I am gonna tear into it for that. fishing the wires into and out of the column will probably be the biggest pain, I think I will lowe r the column down a bit to get better access to the switch connector under the dash.seems awfully tight for...

I haven't done one in nearly 35 years and that was on my old 72 chevy. pretty simple steering column back then. I hope this will work out good! Any one got...

    power window relay mod

    howdy!! I just did the relay mod for the power windows on my 87 gmc. LMC sells a kit and it is very easy to hook up, worst part is fishing the wires thru the door boot into the cab, I used a coat hanger and had good luck. It works very well!
