 1. Now that the front end of the truck was updated with new shiny stuff, the ass end needed a little help. Here is what is going to be updated, the stock taillights. |  2. The technician opened the tailgate to expose the hardware for the lights. After they were removed, he pulled out and back on the lenses to free them from the tabs on the bed side. |  3. Just like the headlights, the taillights feature a factory-style connection, so put the wire cutters and solder away. |
 4. Wiz bang-doesn't that look much better? Of course, it does. Not only does it look better, but they are bright as hell. Because they are made from LEDs, they will outlast a standard incandescent bulb. |  5. The truck was missing the factory tailgate handle bezel, so we needed to do something. Instead of just getting a resto piece, we ordered this tailgate lock that simply installs under one of the handle bolts. |  6. This is the bolt in question. The technician removed this bolt, slid the lock setup between the handle assembly and the sheetmetal, and reinstalled the bolt. |
 7. With the new bezel installed, the handle looks stock, but the lock will keep the tailgate safe from shady dirtbags. |  8. Here is the billet fuel door that we got from Stylin'; it's made to completely replace the factory sheetmetal door but still function like before. |  9. The stock door was removed by unthreading the two factory bolts. |
 10. Before installing the new door, these two little spacers were slid over the bolts. There are new nut clips that were snapped on the quarter panel as well. |  11. After the spacers and nut clip were ready, it only took a slight balancing act to get the bolts started without the spacers falling off. |  12. Whoo-ahhh! Now the truck has that race car look. The door is popped open and held shut with a magnet on a plunger, kind of like the glass doors on your entertainment center. |
