dont have pics but they work fine, its kinda annoying to take off the vanity light lenses. You need a very fine flathead and will end up marring some of the plastic, but wont notice it much. Supposedly there is a way to take the whole vanity piece off but couldnt figure it out.

Starting the Blackout process on my Laramie Sport Crew Cab. Step 1: Replaced the chrome RAM badges with OEM Black ones. Already makes a drastic improvement! Can't wait to get the rest of the chrome off this bad beast!!

Got the front windows tinted to 50%. It's legal limit and will reduce heat into the cab through those windows by almost half. We'll see how it affects real-world temps. Appearance is a minor benefit. Reducing heat/glare was my main objective.

Does anyone know what the tint level is on the back windows stock? Are they 35 or 15 or something else? I want to tint my front windows to match. Legal in Virginia is 50%, but they usually don't bother you much if you go down to 35. It's when you drop to 15 that the popo start to get fussy. I'm also going to do the back windows at 5% as there is no limit in Virginia, and do a header band on the front windshield at 5% which is legal as long as you stay above that little marking on the windshield.

I did mine for VA which is why I stayed at 50%. Back are 20% from the factory.

The 50% looks so much better than nothing. I'm thinking if I went 35% in the front, it would get pretty close to the back then. I've had 35% on several cars and never been bothered by police. Friends have done 15% and they are always getting citations. Thanks for confirming what the backs are.

Replaced the halogen vanity mirror lights with led. Got the bulbs from Diode Dynamics, popped the plastic covers, removed old and installed new bulb, attach cover, complete. Huge difference.

What's the story on these 2 pics? Is the bottom one Before and the top one After?

Dang! I have a Laramie Black and would have totally traded you all the black badging for the chrome badging. I really wanted a Laramie Sport, not a Black, but it was hard enough to find one with everything else I wanted.

I got a Line-X Standard spray-in bed liner on Tuesday. Today, I put on a Revolver X4 bed cover and put in a recycled rubber commercial door mat ($30 at Home Depot) as a bed mat.

I'm planning on getting my dealer to install a set of power running boards and the factory LED bed light kit, a local shop to do window tint and a ceramic coat, and then I think I'll be done.

I really like the way the revolver bed cover looks.

I call it Ligonized with Ligon being my last name! Went and had the stock muffler swapped out with a Borla ATAK muffler and left the resonators. Definitely happy with the sound! Also while I was out went and put an eyebrow on the windshield. 8D62C712-2645-46F9-B90D-39AD4673DFDE.jpeg
