Cap City Build & BS AF

I don't trust the pin switches for under-hood, I prefer a manual switch. The under-hood environment is a dirty one, even for mall-crawlers. I hate the thought of the switch getting dirty and stuck in the on position.

 

Good input!!!
​

And figuratively! ​

 

Tldr

 

subbed in....

 

No, I didn't. I may pick one up anyway, as the hood pin switch for my alarm recently fell apart from corrosion.

@BenTheMan has a weatherproof switch for his hood lights, and that'll be the route I take as well:



I'd like to turn the hood lights off when I'm detailing the engine bay, that way I don't drain the battery with the lights constantly on.


....or I should just get a dual battery setup

 

Nice!! i have one of those also, not going to use it though.

I can just hit the breaker on my blue sea setup and it will kill the aux lights when detailing

Love the simplicity of that setup​

 

Ordered the stuffs to do my rear view cam anytime mod ​

That being said, I haven't heard of a pin switch getting dirtied up and stuck, so YMMV.

 

I just cam my pants.

 

Sorry bud. Damn.

 

​

 

Now if I could find the OEM camera...

Appears you're actually doing some semi-practical mods.
Submarine'd

 

LOL!!!! Has to be one in a junkyard near you!!!

Totally, trying to really get this truck 'finished' up.

Aesthetically, she's in a good place.

Just a couple little odds and ends ya know.

 

I try not to spend more than i'm willing to lose, and if it's more that i'm willing to gamble I just pay the additional 3% and send it as goods and services

 

Dear God what are you people doing in here?!!?!

 

​

 

Exactly

 

Toyota trucks don't exist in junk yards round here man.

Hen's teeth. And a premium price if you do find one.

People drive em til they fall apart, literally. Then they most likely get scrapped/crushed.

 

Ah, you make very good point sir! ​

 

​

You coming to the 1st T&T in the new spot?!??!?!
