Of course marker and tail lights would have to be connected later if I choose to do it before assembly.
Just looking for what might be best route to take.

Nice truck!

I usually install the dash pad before the under dash wire loom, or anything else in or around the dash for that matter. Otherwise the mounting nuts can be a bear to get to. Other than that it really doesn't make much difference. I also try to remember to install the headlight harness before I put the hood on because it makes it easier to run the loom between the fender and inner panel on the drivers side....
