Looking good bud, i recommenced all stainless hardware, snow will eat the stock alive, use plenty of grease on the ball ends as well, they will rust up quick. ill stay tuned.

Thanks

for the hardware that's what I'll do, stainless all the way, I found a good seller here in France so it's quick if I need something (except for a few specific screw...)

and for the lights I'll try this kit
