Nice rig and nice build thread. I definitely understand the slow-build threads, hahaha.

I like that bumper!

And that switch is for an alarm system. I've got one in mine, too.

Aftermarket, as far as I can tell. See if you've got a horn looking thing under your hood somewhere, too. I pulled mine out though, so your truck's P.O. may have too.
