2006 Ridgy Award - Top Install of the Year

[T Mac]

If you would like to have your truck in the running for the top install of the year to receive our first annual Ridgy Award, please post a reply to this thread with details and images.

Note: To keep this thread clean and easy to see the nominees, please hold back from lots of replies unless they are necessary to review the nominee.

We'll let this thread run until Tuesday morning on the 26th. I'll then create a Poll and we'll let that run until New Year's Eve. The one with the most votes wins the title and will also win a prize from the ROC home office.

Good luck to all involved! We appreciate all of the work you've done, so you are all winners to us. Let's have fun..start showing off those installs!

I go with my original post and once again Nominate DJDJ for his rear LCD MOnitor
I figure regular posters might appreciate nominating the best installs or ideas for this year since we are coming to the end of this one. They can hold a Ridgy award if we can get Tom or an Admin to designate the Virtual title.<P>
To start it out, I totally nominate DJDJ for his LCD in the rear headliner. This is the simplest yet most ingenious install ever. I criticized some of his install for having to many different finishes and colors but this idea he struck gold on. To be able to look back and see you bumper at the same time is the absolute safest thing you could do with this or any truck. There are too many people that will not even bother to turn their fat a**es around to see whats around them. Mirrors are supplements to eyes, not substitutes. Anyway, here is the link to the best use of an LCD that I have seen.

I also like this one. Big _Ridge done a really clean install with his PS2 and smooth looking exhaust. Good Job! My PS2 installed w/factory navi

Cubby Cover. Although it is probably more proto than install, I think people will be buying these up. I can totally see Honda offering trademark $$ to use this in the future. Guys, you really should push this to Honda.

I was going to close this thread earlier today and open up the poll but let's have this open another day or so. We need more nominees than these two. Anyone???

It seems pretty basic, but I think ChrisM's in-bed 12V outlet is worth a mention. A great concept & something that "shoulda come from the factory."

Can we see a Pic? Install details would be nice...

I guess I have to do the work since I started this thing. Here is the 12V bed install. Its utilitarian but I know its hard to make a 12V outlet bling . I agree its still a trick install though.
