  2. Does anyone know how many feet of power wire needed to run a power wire from a driverside battery through the firewall and to the driverside rear wall on a 2002 Silverado Extended cab?

      ^^ what they said.....I was hesitant at first too but really glad I did....a bonus is you can feedback along the way especially if you get stuck somewhere or just need to bounce an idea off someone.

  5. Hey Guys random question. Are there any rules about buying items? Like min. post count or anything?

      I don't believe so, just selling is a min of 750 unless you buy a premium ad for a dollar.
