    Right now 14 haha But I only drive 30mph about a mile at a time for work, so it really never warms up.

    On the highway I see anywhere from 16-20 most of the time. There isn't really any flat road out here so I can't really get a good base number.... Haha

    Wired all of my switches and the relay box/mount up. And everything worked right the first time! I only caused sparks once, not my brightest moment in wiring... :eek: But it was a first haha

    I'll get better pics tomorrow.

    Hmmm let's see what I would need...
    Bumper Bar
    Fogs
    Roof bar
    Rock lights
    Think I'm justified. After my grill (and a new headunit) think I'm gonna do it lol

    Rear locker
    Front locker
    Compressor
    Winch on/off
    Winch In/Out
    Bed lights
    2 Heat seaters


    already know where I want to put all of those too haha

    Ok...What did you tap into to get the text on the switches to turn on with the ignition? I never attempted to get mine to work that way. I was thinking of tapping into power to the factory clock plug since I no longer have it in the truck.

    I used the wire that ran to the small halogen bulb for the ash tray. I cut the wire back when I put my cb there. I just pulled it out and used it to tell the lights when to turn on.

    Worked out perfect because it runs right where the switches are :)

    No more taco life for me
    1. I decided to just order bussman through that guy, I wanted better connectors etc but after waytek tried to charge $25 to ship it all, it became to expensive to do a bulk order.
    2. I have to pee
    3. Idk why I numbered these

    Wow... Nice. Haha

    Still have those extra pieces if you want to buy them off of me. Or are you having that guy go ahead and pre-wire everything (that's what I would do)

    Makes sense. I could do that but it'd be kind of far for where mine are. I took a multimeter to the factory clock plug and found which wire was hot with the ignition on so I think I'll just tie into that for now. Until I have a need for more switches. Eventually I think I'm going to ditch my double din so I can use the lower pocket for switches. Then I'll put my current switches for lights there and put my winch (eventually) on/off and in/out switches in the clock space.
