I didnt see the chrome badge (acetone) trick. Dont buy chrome badges when they are already on your truck! Tape off outside of the stock badges to protect paint. Soak a rag with nailpolish remover, or acetone. Spend an hour or two wiping away the black paint on your fender and door badges. The finished product is a chromed badge. Just like the one you can buy. I used Q-Tips on the door badge to get in-between the small lettering.

Overhead console light always bright.... I unplugged the light blue wire with red tracer as in the picture, but the light in the overhead console would not work at all afterwards. I saw a post where a guy with the same truck (2002 F-350) did it with success. What am I missing?
I've done:
1. bypass 1 micron oil filter mod (got to add pics sometime)
2. HPX mod (got to add pics sometime)
3. towbar/driveshaft disconnect mod (with tail-light diodes split)
saving and printing these for extremely soon wrenching times ahead....
a. up-pipe upfitment (due to leaks)
b. deadhead-ectomy with manual FPR and guage
c. CCV mod (I'm gonna use silica)
d. TQ lockup mod e. dinger bell delete mod from ignition
f. harpoon mod (maybe?)
g. downpipe moding idea (see other thread I just started with obvious title)
