    Little mods/upgrades/additions that make a big difference

    Love this project, Very Cool!! I get the whole red, night vision thing and why you might want white as well. This might work for you, search Ebay for "44 key remote RGB LED" its a nice kit that is wireless remote which allows you to choose ANY color and dim it if you like. I used this setup...

    Adventure Truck build - 90 xtra cab 3.0

    backlit Im building the switch panels out of white acrylic and painting them, then etching them with the dremel and backlighting them with red led so that during the day all the text will be white and at night will be illuminated red. This is just a small test panel to give an idea what it...

    Face lift Tired of the old interior and have at this point identified what works, what doesnt, what I liked and didnt so I figured it was time for a facelift and some propper component integration. Im currently in the process of building an overhead and center console. sorry about the blurry...

    Repurpose a smartphone

    LOVE the Flir idea! with a couple extension cables you could separate the camera from the phone and mount either wherever you like. I may have to look into this as well! ; )

    Solar panel affixed to hood?

    Count me in! Hi guys, just saw this thread and thought Id throw this in. I found an old panel and controller in a custom van in the junkyard and thought Id connect it to my cranking battery just to keep it topped off. I dont remember the wattage but it was low, maybe 8-10w and the controller...

    Repurpose a smartphone

    Smart Phones Ive actually been working on this as well, Im currently revamping the interior and am considering adding one for a cool app I found clled RollMeOver, possibly integrating one as a GPS fed HUD, and if your carrier supports tethering you could have live doppler radar ; )

    Poll- Do you actually sleep inside?

    One of the primary functions of the Callen Topper. I had a shell for a while but the extra space made all the difference!

    Cheap and bright Hey guys great thread! Thought Id throw this out there. Eagle Eyes, they are small (18mm or 23mm) round LEDs that mount in a single hole via threaded shaft that the wires run through and pull very little amperage. Super cheap (less than 1.00 each on popular auction sites)...

    An old Ugly Pickup "Build"

    A year or two ago my 3vze did the same idle surge thing for a couple weeks then never did it again, it didn't cause any trouble and I wasn't in a big hurry to take apart my daily driver in the middle of winter. As for TG, I bought their winch plate and was impressed with the construction...

    An old Ugly Pickup "Build"

    Dude my truck started off almost exactly like yours! Now 6 years later my girlfriend and I can't imagine life without "Adventure Truck" and have had some of the best times in/with it. Ive got over 250k on the same motor you have and though I will admit it's a bit underpowered it's as reliable...

    Adventure Truck build - 90 xtra cab 3.0

    Hi Tangle thank you, I really like your setup too man! I believe it is, Callen sounds really familiar. This is kind of an interesting "camper" as it is more of an elaborate shell. It doesn't have its own floor so I was able to reuse the bed kit from the previous version when I had the glass...
