Rob's NBS Build

[RobbieX210X]

Bought a Dash Mat and installed it. Nothing major, just the truck sits in the sun all day as their is no shade in my office parking lot. Also it changes up the interior just a bit.





No real complaints except I have to keep checking the adhesive strips every now and then.

My dad was behind me and noticed that my parking brake cable was sagging. I knew it was low but thought it was normal as I see plenty of GMT-800s with the same thing. Turned out that is because the one clips was missing (probably rusted away after 13 years of NJ weather and road salt) so I got a bag of retainer clips from the local dealer for 10 bucks. Only needed two. I could have zip-tied the line back in place but for $1.07 a clip I can't complain.

Below is old vs new.



No more dragging cable!

Oh nice simple and cheap fix that most don't notice
I know I see a ton of those years with the same issue.

I finally decided to have the windows tinted. I wanted to have it done when I was in high school back in 2009, but never did because I didn't know where to go. Finally found a shop and got it done. Check out the before and after photos.

I am very happy with how it came out.

Tint always a win!!

Good thing you kept it kind of light on the tint, I have about the same and only one cop, so far, has busted my gf's chops .No ticket tho . I'm originally from Newark/Belleville area. I'm in Keansburg now .

Looks like you matched the rear tint? That's what I did to mine. Looks much better! And that way you can check out the chick in the car next to you without them even knowing. Not that I do that, just sayin' you could.

Hey @RobbieX210X when you took off the side steps (Neff bars) i also noticed you removed the plastic rocker molding did it leave holes in your Fender Flares? and was it hard to remove the side steps mounting bracket? Thanks

His is not the Z71. Ask @blurred , he's had his flares and rocker moldings off and on
