    Alrighty... So if someone could give me some pointers here. Just want to make sure I have it all right...
    My relay came already together, but the red goes to the + on the battery, and the black goes to the - on the battery.
    This might seem like a noob question, mainly cause I am a noob. But do I just unscrew the caps on the battery and put these on the posts?

    And my next question...
    I followed the manual step by step so the switch should be right. Hers a pic, say something if you see something messed up.

    @Sandman614 is the master. He helped with mine, which looks similar to yours. I don't think you're going to want to use those jumpers, we didn't use the ones that came with mine.

    Just went direct to the switch from the relay. Had to use another wire to go from the switch to the dash, not sure the name of it. There is a fuse in there that you feed in to

    Well got impatient and started dipping tonight. Got a nice thick layer down. Some minor bubbling but hopefully will cover up with thicker coats

    @Sandman614 what is the problem with running the wiring harness off the battery via the terminals? its 14 awg wire to a 30a blade fuse. help me understand why i shouldn't do that.
    the alternative would be to run it into the fuse box right? idk how i would do that considering my harness is made to connect to the battery :frusty:

    In my experience with the derping of stuff its best to do many thin coats vs thick coats due to bubbles and runs.

    Yeah. I've got them completely off tires so it's easier. They have some scratches and nicks from having tires on and off them a time or two and so I've noticed a lot of the runs and bubbles I'm getting are in those areas.
