Lets see.. Installed sound sound deadning mat on the backwall of the cab as well as closed cell foam around the rear vents to cut down on road and wind noise.

Removed the HVAC control assembly to plasti-dip the nav screen bezel due to the glare.

How well does the sound deadening work for you?

You did all that work and only had 1 beer? Come on Bro.
Oh I had several. Just caught the various bottles at different stages of dunkeness or something like that. ?

I didn't take it out for a test drive to see today. But when knocking on the panel there was a significant difference tone. So we shall see.

Sawzall cut through the tailpipe in literally 8 seconds.
Do you have to cut the tailpipe to install the tip?? I thought the tips just slipped over the existing length of pipe.

You don't have to but if you don't you can see the tailpipe inside the tip because the tailpipe is 3" diameter and the tip is 4" diameter. I have a Sawzall anyway and with a fresh metal cutting blade it went through the tailpipe in literally 8 seconds.

I ordered the 14” version and not sure it’s going to fit. With the 10”, you could still see part of the exhaust pipe from the rear. It looks like you only have a few inches inside the pipe, I didn’t think about cutting the stock pipe, but I guess I was thinking the stock exhaust should be as close to the end of the installed pipe as possible.
