Thanks

You will need the console ,The wiring harness, Here's the biggy! Need the female connection uner the dash, If you have none there, try to find that wiring system at a junk yard, there's a fellow on this site, if you look up the members list, he is always parting out trucks. ODIEUB to look for.

You need to start going to junk yards to find the parts you need! The female connection and that wiring you will not have, once you see the console and wiring harness's and connection female, yo0u will know how to install, try 270-230-3317 thats ODIEUB He is the gut that parts out many trucks!

about the headliner... it comes down pretty easy.

start at the front IMO take the grab handles off the pillars then pull out the pillars

take off your overhead cab light

then take the handles of the middle pillars (or move to back pillars if you have single cab) take off pillars...its all kinda self explanatory as you start doing it just find out what holding you up and take it off but support the front of the headliner as you move back

Do they also make just a cover with the lights? I would like to remove the lie-o-meter, but keep the lights.
