Nice! Why the switch from rock warriors?
Removed the 3rd row seats and seat belts, and installed my most important mod to date.....I used the upper 3rd row seat belt anchor and had a local sewing shop custom fit straps that I can use to tie things down, pull myself up to access the roof, and use as tow points if needed. Ok, maybe not tow points, but I took the idea from @RS6tofj80 (thanks Erich) 
. Also replaced all interior lights with LED's including the really bright LED panel in the cargo area shown. Really happy with the results.

I added a light bar that was too much flood biased for the front to the rear as a high level selectable reverse light, and I added another scene light to the driver side of the truck to help setup camp or whatever.
Yep I installed Rigid lights in the rubber plugs. My write up is here: What have you done to your 200 Series this week?
Nice - which LEDs did you go with? Specifically which color, brand... and which panel did you choose for the back?

Busy weekend! Today I swapped the rear springs from 2723 to 2721 with the help of my Rising Sun buddy Jackson who was switching from 2721 to 2723. I also added an ARB awning using the Front Running mounting brackets which worked extremely well, and I trimmed the spare tire hanger for the Rock Warrior rim as I'm getting a 5th Ridge Grappler installed tomorrow. Should be ready for the 200 meet up by tomorrow night!
Added Slee battery status LEDs just above the ashtray to monitor my dual batteries. Removed the Cobra CB I had in the slot and put the ashtray back. Swapped the radio to a Uniden CMX750. The Cobra did not remember the channel when I turned it off then on. I have the Uniden CMX560 in my 100 series and like it, Backlight is red on the 560 but the 750 is adjustable. 750 base unit is smaller than the 560 and it comes with a handset extension. Both are good radios.

I love the side lights. What brand are they? Can they fit the stock roof rack?
Here is the link for the LED that I used in the rear cargo.
Amazon.com: Cutequeen Trading 2PCS White 5050 48SMD 48-SMD LED Panel Dome Light Lamp + T10 BA9S Festoon Adapter (pack of 2): Automotive
Here is the link for the LED's for the interior and rear license plate lights.
Amazon.com: Zone Tech 10x WARM WHITE High Power LED Car Lights Bulb: Automotive
Really like the results and a fairly cheap mod. Hope this helps.
I'm assuming you're referring to me? They are Labcraft SI8: LED SCENELITE (SI8) - Labcraft I honestly have no idea if you could get them to work on a stock rack because I don't have one. They are the perfect dimension for the Front Runner rack, but you can check the dimensions in that link to see if they would work.
Yes your lights. They are sweet lights, I will check with my local shop to see it it fit...I will put get 6 of them, 4 both sides and 2 in the back. Thank you.
Spent 7 hours washing, compounding, waxing, interior cleaning, ect. Applied some POR15 to the multiple bare metal areas. It's (almost) as good as new. Or at least close to how it was two weeks ago.
Terrible phone camera as my DLSR is somewhere in Moab.

Hi I'm new here. First mod! Yanked the rear seats out to make room for my fridge and Goal Zero.
