UPDATE: I'm getting the dye soon, possibly this weekend.
I'm gonna get some fiberglass filler to do the holes, get a floor piece from a pickup or Pathfinder and dye all the pieces so they match, and throw them in there.
Then the fun part, making S13 seats work in the truck, haha.
Then maybe some bolt-ons?
Tell me what you guys think.

UPDATE: I have the fog lights installed!
Here are a few pics of the process.

^the lights themselves^

^sweet new Channel Lock set I got for Christmas which I got to use for the install^

^drilling the holes^


We ran it through the driver side door grommet and hid it flush in the grill and along side the wheelwell.

^hooking up the wiring^


^nicely tucked into the wheelwell^

^brand new fuse in the box was blown^

^ghetto-rigged it for now^

Put it all together and it looks like this.

UPDATE!: I got some new parts from the junk yard and here are some pics.

To start it off, I found a clean Grant Steering Wheel and Adapter(about a $130 value), got it for 6 bucks.
I cleaned it up and took a pic. (tell me what you think)



OEM Shift Knob-Five finger discount.


I found a cool Oil Cap on a Hardbody with Japanese writing, mine is just a dipper, so I figured I'd switch it out.


After I cleaned it up a bit.


I found an ashtray which I wanted to fill in a gap in my dash and cleaned that up a bit.


Then "Rosanne" finally got a bath, and Louvers to fill in those nasty gaps I had in the hood.

And can you say "Gold Tow Hook FTW"?

UPDATE: I got all the carpet and stuff, and will begin dying it soon, along with all the other interior pieces.
I did however pick up some more stuff and got my steering wheel on.
Check it out.




New Overflow Bottle Cap.


Lexus LS300 Horns for a deeper horn, haha.
