I don't remember exaxt fuse. Picked one that I knew was powered when truck runs. I can look again if need be.

I stuck the lights under the top frame member between grill and radiator, so they point down. Brought the wires up over the top and ran along it to a ground point, and the fuse box.
That looks great! I'm trying to do something similar. What fuse did you use and how did you run the wires to avoid the active grill shudders?
I added my LED DRLs and I used a Micro II fuse tap and used F60 under the hood. My lights activate with the ignition and turn off on a delay like the headlights. There are small square openings on the bottom of each side of the active shutter, so I ran my wires through there and then just played the zip tie game all the way to the fuse box.

It was a long day...there were some casualties, but in the end, it all came together.

Motofab 2.5" leveling kit, then I strapped some 295/70/18's onto Black Rhino Duggers +0
Absolutely love this setup. I may be a little biased. I have a Granite Crystal Crew Cab Sport 6’4 bed. Leveled with 285/60/20s. This makes me wish I would have went with aftermarket 18s. I like the simple off-road design wheel you chose. A lot of the newer design wheels are over the top for me.

Received and Installed new shoes (FUEL COVERT 18 by 9 -12 offset) and Carven direct fit muffler for my Fathers Day gift. Let me tell you, this exhaust changed my life, it sounds so perfect! Highly recommend.
Those are absolutely gorgeous
Good choice sir
And the offset is perfect

Spent roughly 16 hours over the weekend detailing the truck. Strip wash, clay, hand polish, ceramic coat, and ceramic detail spray. Now I know why people pay so much to have this done. But it was time well spent to keep it in good shape. I couldn’t believe how many paint defects I found going over the whole thing inch by inch. Wasn’t a single panel without something wrong with it. A couple I debated taking up under warranty, but honestly it’s not worth the hassle to me in the long run.

White isn’t gonna show that deep gloss and give the same “pop” that black or other darker colors will, but she looks damn good for now, and I’m pleased with the outcome.

Looks great. I can relate to this.... Every time I detail my truck I find a fish eye or a run or orange peel in the paint. I think they’re all like this. I found an eyelash in the clear coat on the roof of my 4th gen lol. I’m the only one who will notice the paint defects and it’s not worth having someone re paint it. The factory painting process is much more robust as it’s baked on and there’s multiple stages, much more than a paint/body shop would do. A re painted panel won’t hold up the way factory paint would. Stuff we have to live with unfortunately :/

I'm looking into these exact window visors. How do you like them?
They are ok... had some issues with the little spacers they come with tho on the driver window.

I think I would have rather get this style as they kinda flow and look like one piece
