I've always wondered about these, do they actually help (IRL) in deflecting bugs away from the windshield? As a Floridian, sometimes just a short drive and and I'll have to wipe down the windshield again to properly clean.
We'll find out this love bug season... šŸ˜–

Looks nice. but I would not use any wax related product. I recommend you stay away from waxes as they do not last long. Go with a product like 303 Graphene Spray or Turtle Wax Graphene. You will get a year out of that coating and you'll be much happier in the long run.
While I agree that Graphene can add some great shine and protection, I personally feel that wax gives you more depth to your shine. I'm not a afraid of waxing every 3 months - in fact I actually enjoy it. This falls under the "personal preference" category, aka the danger zone.

I agree with comments before this one about Chemical Guys. I used their BLACK wax and Black Light Polish. CRAZY good results.

No, but its not that there is no difference in volume it is just that the head unit (in my truck at least) clips the signal after 26 volume. I checked every output when setting the gains on my LC7i and amps with an o-scope to confirm. Simply upgrading the 6x9's and adding a four channel amp will be ok if your not in search of that deep hard hitting bass. I often wonder if the PAC AMP Pro cleans up the radio signal and allows you to turn it up all the way which would justify spending close to $300.
I have the PAC AMP PRO. I have a 5 channel amp. 100 wats to each door and you can definitely turn it up past 25. If I turn mine all the way to 36-37 you cant hear the person sitting next to you if they try to talk to you. The 5th channel powers 2 JL 12" subs.

Looking at this same set. Happy with fit?
@GadgetMason Most fit good with exception of 1 piece in the rear portion of the center consul box. The flip up divider wouldnā€™t clip back in through the notches. I just cut it off. Happy otherwise. I mostly wanted the kit for the cup holders as my hands too big to fit in to clean LOL.

Have the same set. The fit leaves a lot to be desired. Especially the ones that replace the factory pieces. They are flimsy rubber. You have to use the 3m double sided tape on several pieces to get them to stay in place. If you want them for "protection" they aren't what you want. And most of the pieces you never see once installed, so not really for looks either. Overall, I'd give them a 3.5 out of 5 stars

I may take you up on that if you're serious. My brother is in the Seattle area and could ship it to me šŸ˜†. I'd drive up but 2200 miles would take me a few days!

Yeah these things aren't worth shipping. It would probably be $50-70 to ship and at that point you'll get a brand new one for less.

I purchased the Vedder LightDraw OWB left hand draw for one specific purpose: to mount to the outside side of my 2019 Ram 3500 console. This thing is absolutely AMAZING & PERFECT! I simply removed the belt clips, that just unscrew, drilled to small holes in console, added a 1ā€ spacer between holster and console so to make easy and quick access to gun, and used to bolts to fasten. The hand gun I mounted is the Sig Sauer 1911 Emporer Scorpion.45. Iā€™m not kidding- it worked absolutely perfect and looks OEM. My leg does not hit it, seat fully adjusts and it is easily accessible and secure for when Iā€™m on the road. Very high quality holster, excellent fit and nice looking. And holsters are MADE IN THE USA!!!

Removed the 4x4 on the bed. The gray just didnā€™t look right with everything else black.
Black 4x4 came in but not sure I want to install as it looks clean without it. I need your help!! Add the 4x4 in black or leave it removed??

I bought some black 4x4 graphics for my granite crystal also. I put one on and didn't like it at all. I think it would be a similar situation on your truck. especially since you debadged the doors.
