Headache Rack

I finally got my headache rack finished (almost). I built it months ago. This past week I put the finishing touches oin it and got it painted.

I made it with louvers, and the center cut-out for my electric slider. I have red led's and white 6" ovals that are in-line with the third brake lite. I also have some tractor lights up there to light up the rear (can't ever see at night through the tinted rear window). I'm still hooking up all the lights (the reverse circuit is giving me a headache--maybe that's why they call them that LOL

). As soon as I get it all hooked up I'll get the pics on here. BTW, it's black to match the truck with SS parts to trim it out, such as the flange to mount the led's, and it will have SS grab handels.

I'm still thinking how to mount the CB antennae up there. I want to be able to swivel them back to park in the garage. Anyone got ideas?
