    For those that have installed, did you guys un hook the battery?

    I was going to, but if its not needed I would rather not have to.

    just got done with the install and I must say I am extremely happy with the outcome. Pics coming later.

    If you are intimidated by the install process don't be. Just follow the instructions and you'll be fine.

    Just a couple things I would suggest when installing:

    Run the power wire behind the grey stock wire bundle. It will give it protection since its close to the exhaust.

    Use a smaller drill bit before you go in with the larger bit. For the wire harness, use the smallest drill bit you can (that will fit). It will be a much cleaner install.

    Take one step at a time and dont get ahold of yourself.

    UNPLUG the Battery.

    Installed the lights a little over a week ago and they have come in handy multiple times already. Thanks again, Matt!

    Also, for anyone that may be wondering, I have a softopper and the flap that I have velcro'd to the front of the bed (near the cab) covers most of the LED strip. However, there is still plenty of light from the parts of the strip that are showing and also from the sides. If anyone needs/wants pictures, just let me know.

    How was the Baja 1000? I've been dying to go!!!

    I feel confident with the install, considering everyone is saying how easy it is... I'm just curious where the switch mounts? I have a '06 Double Cab (before the power outlet in the bed).

    If you could post/pm me the answer, and maybe the install instructions, I would be grateful!

    The trip was one of the best ones yet! We pre ran the first 30 mile of the race coarse on our dirt bikes, ate way to many tacos and drank to many beers. My uncle will be entering a bike in the Baja 500 next year, go
    "Team Mustache" 290x (not to win, simple to finish).

    PM me your email address and I will send you my install instructions.
