Great looking truck and same color as mine! I'm curious on the LED interior lights you added - did you buy a kit or piece it together? I want to swap mine over to LEDs as well like I had in my 100, but I'm not sure what people are doing for the 200.

I used superbrightleds.com. They have a vehicle/bulb finder on the website so it's very easy. I went with the 4100k diodes which are pure white. Just make sure you take inventory of the number of bulbs you need and order accordingly. I ended up ordering a couple too many. They ship super quick too. It's the run of the mill Taiwan LEDs but decent quality.

That being said, it's always my first modification on a vehicle. The LEDs make a huge difference especially on the interior.
 
I've seen Ray's LC200 in person- photos don't quite convey it's awesomeness! Has me thinking about selling the 80 series and 100 series...

Thanks Louis. I've added a few things since you last saw it. Rack. Arb skids. Ladder. Light bar. and sliders are all on. Spoke with Nathan at forge so the harrop front and rear elockers will get installed soon. Still trying to find time to install the arb bumper. Arb intensity lights. Labrak light pods and winch. Once all that happens I can finally get the bp51's installed that have been sitting in the garage for a few months. Hopefully in the next month or two illl get it all buttoned up
 
I'm looking forward to seeing it when the current list is done!
 
Oil Change, Oil and Air Filter replacement, Lube, Brake System Flush, and perhaps most importantly....washed off 1700 miles of winter road grime from our Christmas trip to PA! Just turned 30K miles.
 
First project complete for 2017! Thule box has been sitting on garage floor for a couple years between uses. Officially has a home. Hopefully the girls don't mind I used their noodles....

Excellent way to store one of these big and bulky items. I do the same with a little heavier hoist with my Howling Moon Stargazer RTT.

so since i needed to wire in the light bar switch i went ahead and ordered the rest of the switches and ran all the wiring so all i need to do is connect the relay signal wire which i already ran through the firewall so accessories should be a breeze to wire in now. i got the switches from cruiserheads and i'm very happy with them. the illumination is a little greener and little brighter and not as even as the OEM switches but they still look good and work well too. first pic shows everything off, second shows the name of the accessory lit up when the dash lights are on and third show accessory and dash lights both on

Is that the Thule system to holdyour box. How was the install? I'm looking at the same system to store my Sonic XXL
Yes. I believe it's the 572. Very simple if you have studs to go into otherwise ive seen online others take 2x4s to secure to ceiling then attach system to the 2x4s.

RE: Garage Mounting

The RACOR garage mounting system is $130 on Amazon

I have had two for 6 years. One I didnt install the grate and slide the RTT under the load bars and tie down with the clamps use to install on the roof rack. Makes it a 1 person job to install and remove the RTT. Just back in and lower down or raise up. I do have taller garage doors that allow me to drive in with an RTT installed

You do need to ensure you mount it to the studs, not just drywall :D

The other RACOR is installed the Grates and have my JetTent and other camping equipment on it

You could also use it to install and remove a roof rack if you didnt want to run with it all the time

I use a cordless drill to raise and lower. The bar you put on when you want to raise or lower has a fitting for a drill or you can hand crank it
