Few updates and some future stuff going on.
I'm going to be trying something new. BrothersTrucks just came out with their flush mount license plate box. It raises the license plate to be flush with bumper rather than hang down 1 and 3/4" like stock. It's going to be tricky with plans to make it work with hidden hitch. Not designed for that. But I am determined to make it happen. I like the flush look and I had forgot to order my license box for bumper. It's the first commercially available flush mount box I have seen and brothers says it wasn't designed to work with it, so I am on a mission to prove them wrong
Stay tuned.

And here is my thread on it as well in general section:

Other update. Radio is installed and wired up. Thanks to 71StepSide I was ahead of the curve troubleshooting the source of the yellow wire(AAW harness, radio bat +) to clock fuse. Why they did that I dunno. They also only supplied a 10amp fuse for that circuit but if you use it for radio battery connection, you need to step that up to a 20 amp.
I have the retrosound radio, and decided to mount the microphone for phone calls. Well it clamps onto the little flat spot on tilt rod next to column like it was made for it. So then I just ran the wire underneath the "column to dash" rubber grommet and called it a day. It works great too, called the wife on it from garage
Another cool feature on that radio, if you turn the feature on, it syncs the clock automatically when you sync your phone via bluetooth. So you never have to set your clock manually on the radio.
Clock synced here as soon as I connected my phone to bluetooth.
Here is the microphone that comes with radio. I am in the middle of finishing up "buttoning up" all my dash harness wiring as well. It's a mess right now
Radio comes with male "bullet style" connectors, so I had purchased a kit of those already for other things and used just the female ends on the AAW harness connectors for radio connections. Worked really clean.
