Your unique mod on the 1st Gens

Nothin to unique or special but i mounted my rigids on the frame or crush mounts i think theyre called

 

You should post some pictures of the light output on those things if you have them

 

Both my 35 hid headlights and the rigids
#2 is the rigids about 10 feet from my car
#3 is the pic i literally took right now for ya... The pics dont do the justice for these things!! That plauground is about 30-40 feet from the truck

 

I will be mounting these in my front and rear bumpers if I ever get time to design them. Great lights!

 

Sweet, thank you. I was thinking of using them as reverse lights, but those would be awesome up front as well

 

I

I was thinking of putting another pair on the bed but dont wannt soend another two hundred bucks for reverse lights...but i wanna get like a 12 inch led bar and use it for that purpose

 

I was thinking a light bar also, but I like my stuff designed symmetrically so I would need 2 light bars. These would be easier to adjust angles and such.

 

So do i and the ones i have would probably ne better too sice you can literally point them wherever youd like unlike a single light bar...makes sense

 

I want some of those!

 

I added an LED light strip to my camper shell. I used a 16' strip of 300 5050 LEDs. I made a full perimeter run and cut off about a foot at the end.

Wiring coming from the tail light through an existing hole in the tailgate area, also showing the main cut-off switch mounted at the base of the shell. I used spade connectors so I can disconnect the wiring if the shell needs to come off:



I used a momentary switch to activate the lights when the lift gate is opened.
I used small angle brackets to manufacture a mount for the switch,and it's installed in the corner of the lift gate frame using an existing screw:





Here's a shot of the finished light strip. The strip comes backed with 3M adhesive, and so far it seems to be holding pretty well. I used sticky back velcro at the corners to reinforce those areas, but I've removed the velcro strips along the straight runs, since the adhesive on the back of the strip was doing its job:

 

posted in other threads but not here.
Bedlined my floor pan and panels with Raptor Liner and built a new sub box ive yet to see done.






Also put in some underhood work lights and used the same lights in my map and dome lights inside.



sorry for the crummy pics but you get the idea.

 

I was thinking of doing the same thing. I have access to LED strips like that at my work. They look sweet, good work man.

 

You clearly don't wheel in the rocks. Those would get crushed in that location. But if it's a street queen, then it looks great.

 

Thanks!

 

Yessir you are correct i forgot to mention that its their temporary mounting place untill i get my bumper built, trust me ive hit rock with them an they moved outta place lol these suckers are tough though, worth the pretty penny they cost...
Thanks for the input, the conpliment/critisism btw your build is awesome i hope one day mine would be that great and unique

 

A small amount of people here wheel in the rocks.

 

Lol ^^

 

BlackDawg, what did you use for the the lights? where did you get them?

 

They are the 6LZ led light bar from Blitzpro.com

 

I know this thread hasn't been posted on in a while, but hey this is a pretty unique mod i think.

Bought a little ipod/iphone cup holder mount and took it apart, cut a hole in that random little square spot in the cup holders and ran my aux cord to it.
