Found these Autometer angled mounting rings. They come in a 3-pack so if anybody else out there needs one let me know. These are for 2 1/16" gauges and are made for exactly this purpose.

I like those better. I saw them in the Google Images but clicked on one of the first ones I saw.

But, hey, it's another small-and-easy-but-productive-and-cheap project for ya!

I would buy the Air Lift before AccuAir :imo: I have had both and worked with both and, so far, the Air Lift is far less problematic.

I tried using a switch box on the caddy when I got it and hated it after having self-leveling kits for so long.
I'll cross that bridge when I get a boatload of cash. Right now it will have to be cheap mods for awhile.

I noticed my outside mirrors have puddle lights but they aren't wired since they quit putting those in the NNBS Silverados. I think the mirrors are the power folding ones from a Tahoe. So I pulled the light housings because they were painted over and looked at getting some new ones, figuring they would be $5 or so. Holy crap, $20 plus shipping for each one. So I just sanded the paint off and buffed them with some Meguiar's Fine Cut. They should work fine. Now I just need to wire them to the dome light circuit and replace the bulbs with LED. Another almost free mod.
