    @riz_atx just go over to his house this weekend and make sure the panel gets sprayed:thumbsup: if I lived closer I'd be over every weekend giving him help or teaching things I know, and modding his B.A. Truck!

    Every time I over work myself I get sick :/ and I get migraines once in a blue moon, and end up sleeping most of the day on excedrine to get rid of them. I had so much more energy when I was 20 lol

    Hey dude. What else would I need to run these RI ditch lights?

    Just everything that comes with them in the box?

    The connection looks like a plug and play kinda deal...

    Not really sure what plugs into that ​

    It includes everything that's needed, the lights themselves plug directly into the harness. The only pain was figuring out how to route everything under the hood, and making sure I gave the lights enough slack when opening the hood so it didn't pull on the harness. I can send you a bunch of pictures later for the routing on what I did if you'd like. Or I can help you install the brackets and lights themselves :) Rigid included a nice relay harness with the ditch lights unlike some other companies lol

    We will need to do it at your casa in the shade! Install took me couple/few hours or so total which included wrapping underhood harness in loom, tying it all down, wiring into the fuse panel with new heatshrink eyelets, running harness to the switch, lining up the ditch light brackets etc. I know you want it to look clean and factory so it will take some time like mine did :)

    We will have to set up a Saturday or something to knock it out. I'll have to bring a few tools and heat gun, eyelets, loom, etc

    Edit: or after the next meet, just head over to chads and get to work lol
