Project for today. Installed remote start and the LED ditch lights.

Next will be tint, the wolfbox once it arrived, and one of my old powered subs once my RCA cable for it arrives. Lost the last one I had.

Wolfbox video. After this I flipped the video to be correct. But shows what it does. Full loop cam, crash detection, etc.

Oh wow. That's pretty cool. How does the camera mount to the bed cap?
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

I ran a wire up under the bed, followed the wiring for the rear brake light on the cap, then fed it out through the light and drilled/installed it right next to it and sealed it off to keep water from getting in.

Ford has an optional bed camera mounted in the 3rd brake light. I keep wondering if it'd be possible to change the angle of the camera and use it for a mirror/dashcam setup.

That’s basically what I want! Minus I want a front. Camera at the grill. Not inside.

View without camera

How I mounted it

Had to go off to the side a bit so the rear window wouldn't hit it when open.

I've thought about adding that to my truck it's supposed to be pre wired, but I'm just not sure how much use I'd get out of it.

Tint looks great. Please for the love of science, keep that topper on. That looks sleek!

I thought about it, but the Tundra is so easy to drive I don't really see a need for the bumper part.

Debating if I want to use the same paint I did in the vette to pain the dash in the tundra. Too much silver inside but not sure if I want just plain matte black either

Personal opinion. Painted interior surfaces don't last and are hard to perfect. On top of that most turn to dog poo within a couple years and start to look really bad. Let it be, its fine.
