I had the part numbers for the Baer replacement rotors for our trucks, but they wanted $400 per rotor. So, you would be better off buying a kit and upgrading the calipers too. Powerslot sells drilled and slotted rotors that will work. You need 14" in the front and 13" in the rear (for 4 wheel disc guys). I went back to stock and felt no difference in stopping (seat of the pants sensor use in this test). To go back to stock you need to replace the caliper bracket with stock brackets and hardware. Then buy stock rotors and pads, reuse caliper and whalla! Your done.

It is a Checkmate Cover, from when they were in Benton, KY. Now i believe they are in TX. Do a Google search for Checkmate FX. I had to trim mine at the tailgate and put some weather stripping in to give it some seal, but it isn't a full seal.

So I've recently bought a new truck and sadly, it isn't a RST. So I'm going to convert it.
And the first step is the door panels. I am going to buy the carbon fiber switches and the leather panel cover today. How would I mount the cover to my panel? Any info will help, thanks in advance. (:
