How do you access the reverse light bulbs with all that dynomat?

Wow. Whatever you did to give that interior such a nice, finished look....it looks *fantastic* and will save folks a lot of tricky fiddling—which I can appreciate, having done in my own messier way beneath my end result. I had the first TT unit for the 200...so I was basically experimenting...trying to figure out how to create the interior I wanted. It turned out great in the end...but...it was not easy starting from scratch and deali g with all the cables, irregular angles, mechanisms, etc.

**Your install is cool because it really let’s people jump past the tricky parts and right into usefulness. Starting off with your setup would have made my OCD customizations so much easier by getting g past the tricky edges.

-Even on my limited budget...and need to save $ by trying to do things myself... what you’re offering here looks like massive time saved and money well spent.

*Very* nicely done!

Reverse light bulbs on the LC are accessible by removing the lens from the outside and then replacing the bulbs from behind.

It doesn’t effect the light bulb access

I personally would prefer a (recessed) thicker black stainless cover to add additional strength “rigidity” for sitting on provide a more secured closing if I want to store my gun in it instead of the glovebox. It seems the current closing has a gap at the corners. Regardless of that, i still love that this is now an option and if fact one of the best upgrades in my book.

Yea, sorry. I didn’t realize the LX and LC have different reverse lights.

That really finishes it off nicely. Might almost be able to pursued me with that.

What is the fan for? Is there an inverter or radio in there?

Eric, can you share more about how your team finished the inside of the tailgate? I've got one to install, and am trying to figure out how to finish the inside. You showed dynamat and carpet - can you share any additional detail?

The carpet on the outside is nice! I don't have the skill for that, so I think I'll stick with the powdercoated top surface for now.

Hi Eric- love what you guys did with the tailgate lid/storage... very clean install! I am installing the lid on my 2016 and the tailgate hatch lock cables are short, sticks out and not long enough to tuck them or re-route them. Did you extend the cables or get longer cables? Thanks-

That's a great observation, I m having the same concern on my '16.

Yep, that’s just going to happen on a pre-2018 (soft close). I don’t know how to reroute them, unless you wanted to upgrade the internals to a 2018+. I’m sure it could be done, but I don’t have the answer unfortunately.
