Today I received my AVS bug deflector and an Extang e-light 500 t9 provide light under my Extang tonneau cover.

The AVS bug deflector mounts differently than I expected. I was expecting 3M tape, but these attach by plugs under the rubber seal on the hood.

I found a good installation video, which recommends using a trim pad removal tool, for removing the original plugs. I was just going to use a screwdriver, but it seems like a tool I will use again in the future, so I will get one before the install.

AWE Crawler exhaust. :) Man that box was huge. Opened it up, and there it was! And there was my wife..."What's that? How much was that?"

"I traded some stuff for it."

The box is already torn down and taken to the recycling bin. The box had enough brown paper padding to fill a 30 gallon trash bag! Hopefully I get to install it tomorrow....maybe take some pics and step-by-step of the installation.

As a side note, I also received my exhaust grommet pliers in the mail today to install above mentioned exhaust.

You will be very happy with the AWE exhaust.

Hi Folks,

I received my new shop vac replace the one that died when vacuuming out the floor of my Ranger. Old one, a 45 year old 32 gallon Craftsman replaced by a new Craftsman 20 gallon. I do not buy Craftsman anymore but this NOS was made by Emerson and is a good buy as Emerson does not make Sears tools anymore but does make this same vacuum for Home Depot under the Rigid brand.

So far so good....it sucks!

My dad use to smoke those nasty things. He'd live on coffee and Kools all day while at work. Lord knows how he's never had any health issues from this and will be 80 this year.
