Jegs has a lot of Grants, the one I have is quite comfortable and you can get the same one in different colors.

If you do end up cutting give a little extra under the gas pedal, found out the bad way getting on the highway floored it and the mat pushed up a little after cutting so the pedal got caught on the lip and scared the crap out of me when I shifted

Trucks looking good though, did you end up putting the LED tails back on?

No on the LED's, we are in the process of selling our house so I've been putting the shop things in boxes. I found out today that my company moving package includes the movers packing and unpacking our stuff which will make things easier.

Is the LED brighter, yes it is, no doubt but I like the look of the oem so much better so for now until we get settled into our new place I'll leave them in. We have our new house all signed up, we move in Sept. 15, here's a shot of the garage:

I've had them through winter they were great, I wondered if they might freeze over as they don't generate any heat but they worked great. The summers here have lot's of daylight so I haven't had the opportunity to use them much, but when I have they surprise me how nice they are, WELL worth the $. I went through a road check on Canada Day and the officer that pulled me over checked them out and was very impressed that they were DOT approved, he actually checked to see if they had the DOT stamp on them,

They seem to be cracking down on after market headlights, up here anyways. We've had a company truck written up for HIDS, but they were stupid bright and no cut-offs on either low or high beam.

I could see that happening on company vehicles, and in major cities for sure that will happen, i live out in the stix so its not to bad my cousin has some projector hid angel eye headlights in his taco he got pulled over once. not because they're illegal but because the cop wanted to admire his truck hahaha
