    Installing EASY PERFORMANCE Sequential Taillight Boards in my Daughters Maverick Taillight Housings, testing with batteries, buffing out lenses, and stainless for the NPD show here in Ocala, Fla. on the 9th of January 2016 .. Really improved vision properties . Hard not to notice these even during daylight hours.

    I take it you would have to make a template to drill the holes, or did it come with a template? Awesome work by Maverick Man!

    No template but the comet GT hood will have the factory holes or you can always drill holes on a non GT hood.

    The exhaust is from summit. Generic kit cut to fit. 2 1/2 inch aluminized mandrel bent x-pipe kit and the mufflers are thrush turbos. The whole system cost $125.00 total and sounds really good. Very little cutting to make fit and used slip connectors to weld up to collectors.
