Nice. You can't have too much power! I have two Renogy 100 watt panels and they work great but I'd love to have more...

2. This is something I did on my Taco as well. I like the dual position; some people don't want to fuss with holding the pin up to get fully open, but I don't mind.2. On the swing out is a stop plate. It's engineered to hold the swing-outs perpendicular to the side of the truck (i.e. out in traffic). That would not work for me. My solution was to drill a second hole where I wanted the swing-out. This way it sat parallel to the side of the truck along the tailgate, which is what you see in the pictures.
5. The swing-outs blocked the rear camera. I bought a second camera and tailgate harness, teased out the camera wires and remounted it to the license plate location on the bumper.
6. This was the largest issue. There is a top plate that ties the bumper together. NONE of the frame bolt holes lined up. I had to drill out the bumper to get the silly thing installed. I did see another individual also installed their bumper, and he didn't mention this issue so hopefully my bumper was a one-off.
When I teased out the wires there was a green wire and a red wire I didn't use because it tied into the main tailgate wiring. The rest of the camera wiring was unique to the camera plug. I believe those two wires allowed for the guide lines backing up. So, I don't have the lines, just a camera view.5. Cool idea with the camera. How do you like the placement? Any issues with any of the driver assistance features? I'm still running the prototype relocation to the carrier on my truck. Extending the stock camera cable is fussy.
If we can help with anything else, let me know.
