I installed lights on the bed, with exception of the tail post as it is solid aluminum. I'll wait to my mill is set up and try drill it out to pass the wires through.

That is looking sweet Keith! If I had known you were going to install lights like that I could have milled a slot in the backside of the rear posts for you! I guess it's a good thing that I didn't weld the rest of the uprights in... Keep the updates coming! Hurry up and finish this one so that we can do another one!
