Also think converting all the lights on the inside to red leds would be pretty cool, including radio and cluster
Just put a camper shell on in lmao

Got some progress made on the truck this week....got some new black carpet, got new hinges, cables, and striker bolts for the tailgate. Also got a new handle since there was on from an OBS truck on there (wtf). Ordered some LEDs to converter the complete interior to red, cluster and hvac included, should look scary as ****. Also found some cheap OEM fender flares, now to price out ladder racks
