Dallas @ HSM: Single Cab 6.7

Not sure yet, Dan. I'll probably run this 64mm setup for awhile now. It runs good and I'd like to get some more drive time and hopefully some track time on it soon.

I was thinking outside the engine compartment I guess.

Maybe some new wiper blades?

That's about the extent of my budget!

I did, however, make a few interior changes that were needed.

The first item that needed attention was the flooring. This truck came with a vinyl floor which drove me crazy. I hated the fact that it was so slick and my floor mats would never stay in place. I opted for a new carpet kit from Stock Interiors and paid a little bit extra to get the additional backing for it. It's the best $150 I've ever spent.

I also wanted a center console. Originally, it had a little dinky console (pictured below) on the floor big enough to fit a couple of Big Gulps in but was definitely lacking in the storage/arm rest area. I hunted around for a Lariat console from a 6.7 but had a hard time swallowing $1500+ for one. I settled for one out of a 6.4 which I'm not too mad about considering they bolt right in and weigh half as much.

Those two items completely changed the interior and made it so much nicer on the comfort scale. Well worth the $500 total spent on everything.

Looks Great. Looks like it came that way. Nice choices

I was just looking thru this thread and I like how you mentioned the stock interiors carpet. I am planning to order black ultra plush (or whatever the thicker one is called) carpet from them and probsbly headliner kit too. Any issue with fitment? Sounds like you are happy with the quality.

Also, I have gray vinyl 2011+ seats with the folding center console.... If I buy stock oem leather seat skins, can I just remove the vinyl covers and put on the leathers instead? Sorry if that's a stupid question I just have not seen it done.

The carpet kit fit well. It made a big difference in sound and looks nice as well.

I'm pretty sure you can just remove the vinyl seat skins and replace them with the new ones. Most seat skins these days just slip on so changing them is easy.

Awesome that's what I hoped to hear. I look forward to getting that carpet and next time I see seat skins selling I will think hard about it

There's also a few aftermarket options for seat skins too.. I've seen some for what seem like a good deal for high quality materials, but I too wonder about fitment and difficulty of installation.
