Yeah, I looked at that when I was running wires up the channels for lights and just shook my head. I wish I had taken the time to fix it like you did.Found a mouse nest on top of my cabin air filter on Friday. OK, it's time to make it so that can't happen again, time to screen over the fresh air intake.
In case you've never seen it, here is the fresh air intake, it's under that big piece of plastic in front of the windshield:

That wire harness is for the little heater wires at the front of the windshield, for the wipers. You can actually see the infamous recirc door down there, it's in Recirc position now. It's pretty easy to get that cowl cover off, you start at the front, remove the cover in front of the radiator, then the side pieces snap off. Take off the wiper arms (14mm wrench), then a pair of screws at the ends, and it pops right off. I have to say I'm pretty unimpressed with how they built that, no cover or screen to keep leaves, pine needles, critters, etc from falling into that hole. Dumb design.
I have a roll of 1/4" galvanized hardware cloth screen in my shed, so I made a screen to put over that intake. I started by putting some "Protecto-Wrap" flashing tape (I love that stuff) every where the screen might rub and cause rusting:

Then I carefully cut out some screen, bent it to fit, added a piece of stiff wire for support, then squired some Rustoleum satin black to keep it from rusting. A few more Zipties, no way those bastids are getting into my truck again. Should keep out leaves and other crap too.

Hard wired in my Midland GMRS radio. Wanted it to look like the plug came from factory, think it turned out looking OEM .

Nice work, cool project. I am running the same radio, currently using velcro so secure the base to the side of the shifter council by my leg. How was the install and cutting portion Of the project?
Looks nice! Do you have a link (or more details if it's custom) for the plug you used in the dash?Hard wired in my Midland GMRS radio. Wanted it to look like the plug came from factory, think it turned out looking OEM .

Installed a single Dobinson drawer from my 100 into the 200. Perfect!
And is that an exhaust cut out? Would love to know how that sounds if so.
For sure yes Ironman lift. No, nothing changed exhaust wise.Looks great! Iron man lift? And is that an exhaust cut out? Would love to know how that sounds if so.
1” spacers work in the front. The studs are shorter. I’m running 1” Bora front and 1.25” Spidertrak rear.
