Installed sound deadening mat on the everything behind the front seats except the rear doors and roof(which I'm not planning on doing). Haven't had a chance to drive it yet to see how much of a difference it makes. It BETTER be worth it after the 10 hours of labor that went into it! Also, discovered that it was much easier to just flip the larger portion of the back seat onto the hybrid battery versus taking it all the way out if you just need to get it out of the way to get the carpet up.

Nice job! It looks great. Would love to "hear" (see what I did there) what you think after you drive it. Would have been cool to have done a decibel test before and after...

I'm probably going to do the same thing. Eventually....

Got started on my wiring plan today by installing the Garmin switch to the power supply. Now I'll start running accessories to the switch.

What relay is that? Can you show a picture of where / how you connected it inside the box?

What relay is that? Can you show a picture of where / how you connected it inside the box?

What relay are you referring to? The red cable coming out of the box is attached to the positive terminal under the cover on one end and then the circuit breaker on the other side.

If you take the fuse box cover off and then the cover over the thick cables going down the side, you see 2 terminals and I'm connecting to the one towards the back of the truck. Here's the before picture:

I'll try to get a picture under the box this weekend.
