Good video! Suggest putting black tape or black shrink tube over the area the LEDs were installed in the cab to keep the light out of the cab. I don't drill a hole in the frame for the connection for DCC power, soldier the wire to the metal frame of the truck, just pop the sideframe off and soldier it on, much better connection for power! [Like your bumper music.] Lucky you -- sound project loaded nicely. Looking fwd how you used Win7, PR3, & decoder pro since we STILL can't get it to work!

@RRSalvageMan One thing you need to make sure. When you buy the SDH164D, it comes with a steam file and a diesel file. When you erase the flash and reload a sound project, it always loads inthe the steam file. So make sure you don't have diesel selected because you will not have any sound. I learned that the hard way. I thoguht it didn't work, but i switched it to steam, and I had sound.
