    Howdy All,

    Just returned from a 6,000 mile trip, first time have driven the truck at night and am disappointed in the stock headlights, has anyone replaced the stock lights with some good after market one, if so please post a link.

    Yes I know this a dumb qustion but I am having a hell of a time finding a decent travel mug that will fit into the stock cup holders, I have looked in all the trucks stops and found nothing that really fits these weird shaped Columbia cup holder, please post up your advise if you have found a cup that WON'T fall out of these darn cup holders. THANKS.

    Dave

    Nope never found a cup that would stay. So I bought the big cup and set it on the floor. Replacing the lights is a very easy task...do the first one and your're a pro. Can't mess it up.

    Those cupholder stink. Guys where I work use a lenght of pvc pipe and epoxy it into the "holder" to make something that will actually work.

    I use some plastic cup holders that I got from walwart. I think they were 3 for $1.50 and fit right inside columbia's cub holders. They work great and aren't a permanent "modification".
