    I should be able to go, but Heart Attack Hill, not quite ready to do something like that just yet, mentally/physically!!! Not gonna lie about that and I'm not going to pretend I know what I'm doing and get my self in a situation that is beyond my personal skill level! Just like swimming, if you don't know what your doing or going beyond your "personal skill level limits"... NOT recommended to do it! I give people many props for being able to do that
    :thumbsup:

    You guys should see the one where a vehicle flips and she had a spotter! The spotter, I admit, looked like a retard as he is trying to "guide her", but she shouldn't have done it either way, because she didn't look very experienced to even do such a thing. Just say'n.

    The Pumpkin Patch is a cool place to go to (i.e. on the way over there) and visit. There are many offshoots in that area as well. Anyways...

    Happy Wheel'n people and stay safe

    I agree with most people on here about these videos... But do you know what I support and respect most about these videos?! The sweet mohawk mullet that guy is rocking!!:headbang:... I am debating on attempting it but it is above my skill level! Maybe one day I can rock a mullet like that! :rockband:

    Easiest place is to add a fuse to the ACC fuse spot behind your coin tray. I forget the fuse location, but you'll see it. That way your switches light up along with your interior lights. I have mine wired differently since they only have one light (for when the powered item is on), in pulled power straight from my fuse block and daisy chained them together. I know most guys have switches with two lights (one for the accessory and one when the switch is powered).

    Does this help? You can jump 7 and 8 together (ground) for all the switches in the group. 2 is your positive "in" (from the fuse block/relay) and 3 is your positive "out" to the lightbar or whatever. 6 is from the add-a-fuse that you can tap into your fuse panel behind the coin tray which can again be jumped together for all your switches. That should be good. Let me know. If you can wait for mod-day, I can bring my goodies and help you with this.:thumbsup:

    Ah! Gotcha. Well, when using the aux fuse block (blue sea or bussman), the switches are always going to be "hot", unless you wire the entire fuse block from an acc fuse with a relay. Wiring it the way I showed you above, the switches are still going to be hot all the time, but they will not light up unless your car is on, or the light bar is on. That way you don't see the switches glowing while your car is parked at night.
