My model didn't come with skid plates or threaded holes for them. I had to fish the bolts through the frame rails. So its not really possible to flip them around. But i used high strength hardware.

My step dad's friend picked me up a new (to me) tail light since mine was cracked. So I installed that... I also put on a little badge that he found at the junkyard with some molding tape I had laying around.

Just pulled some infinity speakers from my brothers minivan before he junked it.
I love being an electrician! Wired up a 12v ice cube relay off the amp turn on wire from my radio for the amps.
Grabbed some passive crossovers from radio shack for $3 each.
Gonna mod the door panels for the 5x7's and going to mod the hatch for the 6x9's. That way I can get the amp and bass tube out of the back and commence with tear out and bedliner.

After the last three trips, I see the need. I'll have to chisel out my carpet. I'm expecting some surface rust as well as a couple of holes.
