There may be an easier way to get access to the bose amp but I'm not sure. Little info on 08-09 H2 out there.

Hey how did you get on with the bed liner ? My skid plate is beginning to show signs of rust and scratches etc... I like the look of what you did colour wise. Didn't want to black mine out. Did it take much preparation, and any colour code or anything on the brand you used ?

I believe it was the duplicolor brand of bed liner. I picked mine up at an autozone. All I did was clean the plate really well. Then roughed it up with steel wool. Put 4-5 coats

Did you paint the bedliner after ? looks like they only do it in black, am keen to leave mine looking silverish/grey like yours. Mine is beginning to look tired, with a bit of surface rust etc.

I didn't paint the bedliner after. But I have seen colored bed liners for sale. Red and blue I know for sure but not sure about silver.

Replaced my radiator with an all aluminum one. No drain plug on the 08-09's so you have to remove lower radiator hose to drain the system. Messy but not too bad. Pretty easy job aside from getting the lower hose back on. Pretty tight space.

You happen to have a pic of the can of bedliner you used to do the skid plate. I can only find black over here. My alternative was trying to match the colour to the factory silver lower apron but it might look a bit off. I definitely don't want to black it out and yours is the only colour I've seen I quite fancy

Awesome Job ryaleon! You must Really put her in the Mud, Dirt or something cause i can't Believe that 08' Motor was that Filthy coming off the car lot! I know these 6.2's are like nite & day as far as Power & Speed compared to the 07's & earlier, but did the Upgrade make a BIG Difference! How much Extra HP did it give you!

Not much off roading for me me but i do see a lot of dirt roads and mud.

Well I don't have any dyno numbers but magnuson claims 120 hp and torque to the wheels. It sure does feel like a rocket now compared to how it ran before.
