I think you need to add one of those fart can mufflers, a ridiculously tall rear spoiler, some ground effects that dont match the paint of your vehicle, some racing stripes, a non functional hood scoop thats for looks only, and lots of go fast stickers to proudly show off all of your horse power and that ought to do it.

Speaking as myself a once teenage stereo installer......mighty fine job! But that dash speaker is hideous, gotta mount that on the door or kick panel, and get some tweets for the dash or side-windshield rail.

the top set is wired to a 40 amp relay, bumper is on a 30, spot light is on its own back up lights are on a 15 amp switch.. think what you want about the lights! they are nucking bright, work for what i need them to do, im happy with the way they look and didnt burn a hole in my walet only to get 3 more feet of light.. my next project is fixing those speakers..

i like the speaker, i hope that you ran min 8 gauge wire to that 40 amp breaker. are you breaking the ground or power on the relay? have you figured out how many amps the whole thing is pulling? not including the regular items, such as ecm, radio, headlights, if you need them, etc. i hope you know we are just giving you a hard time and not anything personal? as far as the statement of what you need them to do can you tell us what that is?

there is an altenator built in the same case that the oem alt for the vehicle came in. it will put out 190 amps at idle. we used them on the chevy's in the fire dept for the same reason. it is built by wrangler in oregon or washington state

spend some time on the details.

get all new (matching) switches and put them all in one panel all labled.

clean up all that wiring mess. as already stated, spend some time routing/hiding them.

things always look best if they dont look added/tacked on.

if you are riding around the farm and out hunting I would invest in a good set of A/T tires. dont go all huge, just a little bigger with some nice tread.

give it a good tune up and fresh brakes and drive the heck out of it.

Here's an idea for ya. cut a small metal or plastic plate, mount all your switches on it (lit matching switches could be cool). Mount the plate in the bottom of that square compartment (up an inch or so from the bottom, for wires). Then on the top of the compartment, make a little door out of clear or smoke plexiglass on hinges. Then all your switches are protected. You can just flip open the door and turn on what you need.

Now, to fix the holes that are already drilled... I'm not sure how great it would work, but you could try to fill the holes with something, maybe glue something underneath and then use some filler. Then wrap the whole center console in leather or suede or something.

Just an idea.

more lights. the white ones are 5000k HID.

Yes the lights are dim. but the truck is idling, and theres 110 amps being pulled. i replaced the alternator with a police issue 200amp, painted the frame, added a temp gauge, made a bull bar out of 2" tubing, added halogen interior light, replaced the wiring from alternator to battery to 0 gauge wire, ran relays to the front lights with 10 ga wire going to those. im done.. for now.. haha
