    With that small gauge of wire for some LED lights its more likely to smolder and melt rather than actually catch fire.

    if you run everything through an aux fuse box, then you can mess up all you want, and the worst that will happen is you pop a $0.25 fuse....

    When the winter is over I can help you with the wiring. Electrical circuits come easy to me.

    In my opinion this is crucial on any vehicle that has additional electrical devices added. Also protecting the wiring is in the category as well.

    I appreciate that! We'll see what the future holds.

    All of this down here vvvv took a back seat to me needing wheels and suspenion parts :eek:

    I'd like to have a 20" light bar behind the grill (when i get said grill), and some sort of low profile super bright reverse lights. Both operated by blue OTRATTW switches. I'd also like to do some flyzeye wired in interior lights. Also, at some point, i'll need one of Skygear's waterproof engine bay electrical boxes

    stay tuned for an alternative fully sealed box......very different than anything else people are currently selling. we've been developing it for about a year now, and it is getting close to release time :spy:

    this whole move to MD thing has been a lot more time consuming than anticipated :eek:

    the product is fully designed and ready. we are working on the business end right now. without a proper business structure/organization/processes we cannot offer customer service that meets our standards. Your at the top of the list, Craig.

    Buy the fuse box first easier to do it once. I'm gonna rewire my truck when it warms up I'm tired of separate inline fuses and relays everywhere it's needs cleaned up. Not that what I have doesn't work or is a issue it's just not as clean as I would like :D

    Surprised to see they downsized the engine.. Possibly tuned it for higher output and better fuel economy? So far I have a love/hate relationship with the new look. I love some aspects and think others are ass ugly.
