I haven't messed with it much due to a lack of a welder. I managed to drill out one of the knuckles for the flipserts but thats about it.

I got my liscense plate mount installed and all wired up, used the switch wiring from my light bar that i didnt used since it had a disconnect on it, im not too impressesed with the LED though, I might wire a new led instead

went to the junk yard today for a half off sale

got some goodies

- grey "country" wodgrain goor panels
- over head console with uncut harness and brackets
- WJ tierod/draglink
-a-pillar trim(to replace the ones i broke puting in the a-pillar brackets)
-a couple rear dome lights to make a bastard 00/96 dome light that will act like a 00 but will actually be a 96 at heart

started sound proofing the new door panels but ran out of flashing...off to lowes!
