Looking good Lee. I just got my t15 in and i'll be doing some mods to it next week and hopefully have it mounted here soon.
The 17 came out looking real nice and clean on your truck, congrats!

for the east coast, i think its much better to solder the connection and use heat shrink tubing. that electrical tape will come undone.
...damn i'm glad i dont live those conditions anymore

Looks good Lee. Go ahead and pull those cheesy stickers off because the first time you wash it they will blow off and be forever lost! (Although I was able to find mine)lol
