DON'T STEAL MY IDEAS.

 

I was just eyeing the sea of them at Chaparral today. They're so beautiful. I teared. Haha.

Also in other news. King of the Hammers is airing a 6 episode series starting this month on NBC. @MADSTEEZE , @eon_blue , @Mike likes Tacos , @digitaLbraVo , shoot, all you badass wheeling annons: I know you're going to want to see these. Next year I'll be going as a spectator. Check out the series preview here:

That's quite an elevation jump too, wonder if that had any effect

 

Hammers is badass just set it up to record. I'm planning to check it out next year as well.

 

We'll make a meet of it. Headed into desert season. Joshua tree, ocotillo, superstition, death valley, hammers. Dig it!

 

ok, I give up....I'm going to need some help getting the electrical going for these Hella lights. Never messed with anything electrical on my truck before and these instructions that are included are definitely meant to be understood by someone with at least a modicum of knowledge on the subject. I plead ignorance...

@SlipperyTaco @Mike likes Tacos @Thesandaddict any of you guys in my neighborhood be able to help me out with this? Unfortunately I'm busy tomorrow night so Thursday night would be my last chance to try and get this done before Pismo (I could do Friday night as well since I'm not leaving until Saturday morning). I will supply beer for the job

I did the easy part and mounted the lights to my roof rack lol, so at least that much is already done

 

Lemme know when you're home Thursday. Should be able to figure it out. Can't be harder than my rigids. Might have to run to Hesperia to grab a toy but if you're home after 7 it should work out

 

Im sure the tech manual is online? Certainly if you call them they can email you what you need. I would hope so at least.

 

Those things are soooo taxed!

 

Just assuming there are 3 wires? If so.....easy peasey. You have switches?

 

That'd be great thanks man, anytime after 7 on Thursday works for me. It's just 2 Hella halogen lights. The instructions make it look like they're telling me to wire them to work in conjunction with my headlights but I don't think that's necessarily how it needs to be done It has a relay switch for turning them on/off, I figure I should be able to run them independently without being connected to the headlamps. I'm a total noob at the lighting game

I'll text you on Thursday thanks again!

 

Phewwww the forest is on fire?
What's wrong with you?

 

Yea you're pretty much on target. Tap into a hot wire or straight to the battery and a fuse, ground them, and the third wire is a switch (relay). At least that's how my LEDs work

 

The forest blazed too hard

 

People losing their homes but lovin's beloved beginners trail remains. Oh joy.

 

Declared state of emergency, over 80'000 people evacuated, homes going up in flames, not really a joke cracking situation dicklovin

 

Did they give you a wire harness?Is this wire diagram better than what you have? Do you already know how you want to get wire from lights to under the hood? To get wire from hood to cab you can penetrate at a rubber seal above your clutch. Can also be seen from under hood. Looks like a black grommet. Just stuff a coat hanger thru it

 

Thanks Mike! That's a little easier to understand, it's making more sense now.

Despite the fact that they aren't yet working, they still look good



Also I think I can avoid drilling another hole for the wires, instead I can run them along the inside of the rubber seal in the door to a hole that leads to the engine bay...






...at least I think that'll work. I'll give it a shot on Thursday with @Thesandaddict 's help and should be rockin' a better lighting game come Pismo

 

Looks good! I see a lot of night runs coming up here

 

Hard to tell, grainy, but at the lookout on Ortega highway, you can actually see the fire over in Cajon
