thanks. i guess that was you when i first rolled up to pick it up around 430ish on friday in a white 4runner. you were outside with a girl taking pics of the rigs or something. Jake told me who you were as you were pulling out...lol it looks even better now that it is clean and i have the top off. hopefully i will have my tube doors on before the weekend too. the thing was nasty filthy when i picked it up. the interior was coated in soot from sitting in their shop for 2+ months. dirt is one thing, but that soot from cutting, grinding, and welding is nasty.:icon_crazy:

Oh yeah, that was my girlfriend and me. And we must have just missed you then. I went around and drooled in and outside the shop at all the builds. I must say that I am crazy jealous of your rig, but not that cleanup :icon_crazy: Enjoy!

Lol. It's much cleaner now. I can't stand a filthy interior. Guess what happen when I turned on the heat the other night....lol dust cloud. They have some nice stuff going on over there. Can't wait to see how your rig turns out.

Thanks to prime8 and another members recommendation I added some cool 3/4" marker lights. $6.99 each and work great. Only downside is they do not blink like the factory ones did. Also got my trail doors mounted up. They are really nice for the price. Got em for $250 and the mirrors $109. They close tight and have zero rattles My rockhard cage is at powdercoat now being done in gloss black. $180 for everything and includes both front and rear sections. if anyone in SoCal is interested or needs a good powdercoater with down to earth pricing pm me for info. Gonna maybe do my cb install today.

Doors are sweet!!!! My stock markers didn't blink I think. My Bushwackers don't either.

I did the marker light mod to get them to blink. It is super easy and only takes a few minutes and they are solid when lights are on and blink when you use the flashers or turn signals. If your lights are off they blink at the same time as the front blinkers. With lights on the marker and front turn signal alternate. Here's a link.

It may or may not work with the bushwaker lights. :idontknow:

Update. Just went to the garage to check em out. They do not blink when the lights are off. Only the front signal blinks. But they DO blink when the lights are on. And they alternate flashes with the front like before. The stock lights will flash with or without the lights on. I did not change my wiring back to stock when I installed these. Just left it as is. FYI there is a black and a white wire on the new led. The white is the ground and the black is the power. So when wiring em in you put the black wire to the white on your rig, and the white to the black on your rig.
 
Rig is sick. Really dig how it came out, makes me want to do the stretch 2 dr even more.... Anyone selling a used 2012 2 dr? ;)
